Mormon 4:23

And now I, Mormon,

seeing that the Lamanites were about to overthrow the land,

therefore I did go to the hill Shim,

and did take up all the records which Ammaron had hid up unto the Lord.

Mormon 5:9

And also that a knowledge of these things

must come unto the remnant of these people, and also unto the Gentiles,

who the Lord hath said should scatter this people,

and this people should be counted as naught among them —

therefore I write a small abridgment,

daring not to give a full account of the things which I have seen,

because of the commandment which I have received,

and also that ye might not have too great sorrow

because of the wickedness of this people.
