Mormon 6:6

Mormon 6:6

And it came to pass that

when we had gathered in all our people in one to the land of Cumorah,

behold I, Mormon, began to be old;

and knowing it to be the last struggle of my people,

and having been commanded of the Lord

that I should not suffer the records

which had been handed down by our fathers, which were sacred,

to fall into the hands of the Lamanites,

(for the Lamanites would destroy them)

therefore I made this record out of the plates of Nephi,

and hid up in the hill Cumorah all the records

which had been entrusted to me by the hand of the Lord,

save it were these few plates which I gave unto my son Moroni.
