Mormon 6:2

And I, Mormon, wrote an epistle unto the king of the Lamanites,

and desired of him that he would grant unto us

that we might gather together our people unto the land of Cumorah,

by a hill which was called Cumorah,

and there we could give them battle.

Mormon 6:4

And it came to pass that we did march forth to the land of Cumorah,

and we did pitch our tents around about the hill Cumorah;

and it was in a land of many waters, rivers, and fountains;

and here we had hope to gain advantage over the Lamanites.

Mormon 6:5

And when three hundred and eighty and four years had passed away,

we had gathered in all the remainder of our people unto the land of Cumorah.

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.
