3 Nephi 7:12

Therefore, Jacob seeing that their enemies were more numerous than they,

he being the king of the band,

therefore he commanded his people

that they should take their flight into the northernmost part of the land,

and there build up unto themselves a kingdom,

until they were joined by dissenters,

(for he flattered them that there would be many dissenters)

and they become sufficiently strong to contend with the tribes of the people;

and they did so.

3 Nephi 7:15

And it came to pass that

Nephi — having been visited by angels and also the voice of the Lord,

therefore having seen angels, and being eye-witness,

and having had power given unto him

that he might know concerning the ministry of Christ,

and also being eye-witness to their quick return from righteousness

unto their wickedness and abominations;

3 Nephi 7:16

Therefore, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts

and the blindness of their minds —

went forth among them in that same year,

and began to testify, boldly,

repentance and remission of sins through faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.
