Lehi, because of the things which thou hast done; and because

       thou hast been faithful and declared unto this people the things

       which I commanded thee, behold, they seek to take away thy life.

      1 Nephi 2:2

       2 And it came to pass that the Lord commanded my father, even in

       a dream, that he should take his family and depart into the

       wilderness.

      1 Nephi 2:3

       3 And it came to pass that he was obedient unto the word of the

       Lord, wherefore he did as the Lord commanded him.

      1 Nephi 2:4

       4 And it came to pass that he departed into the wilderness. And

       he left his house, and the land of his inheritance, and his gold,

       and his silver, and his precious things, and took nothing with

       him, save it were his family, and provisions, and tents, and

       departed into the wilderness.

      1 Nephi 2:5

       5 And he came down by the borders near the shore of the Red Sea;

       and he traveled in the wilderness in the borders which are nearer

       the Red Sea; and he did travel in the wilderness with his family,

       which consisted of my mother, Sariah, and my elder brothers, who

       were Laman, Lemuel, and Sam.

      1 Nephi 2:6

       6 And it came to pass that when he had traveled three days in

       the wilderness, he pitched his tent in a valley by the side of a

       river of water.

      1 Nephi 2:7

       7 And it came to pass that he built an altar of stones, and made

       an offering unto the Lord, and gave thanks unto the Lord our God.

      1 Nephi 2:8

       8 And it came to pass that he called the name of the river,

       Laman, and it emptied into the Red Sea; and the valley was in the

       borders near the mouth thereof.

      1 Nephi 2:9

       9 And when my father saw that the waters of the river emptied

       into the fountain of the Red Sea, he spake unto Laman, saying: O

       that thou mightest be like unto this river, continually running

       into the fountain of all righteousness!

      1 Nephi 2:10

       10 And he also spake unto Lemuel: O that thou mightest be like

       unto this valley, firm and steadfast, and immovable in keeping

       the commandments of the Lord!

      1 Nephi 2:11

       11 Now this he spake because of the stiffneckedness of Laman and

       Lemuel; for behold they did murmur in many things against their

       father, because he was a visionary man, and had led them out of

       the land of Jerusalem, to leave the land of their inheritance,

       and their gold, and their silver, and their precious things, to

       perish in the wilderness. And this they said he had done because

       of the foolish imaginations of his heart.

      1 Nephi 2:12

       12 And thus Laman and Lemuel, being the eldest, did murmur

       against their father. And they did murmur because they knew not

       the dealings of that God who had created them.

       1 Nephi 2:13

       13 Neither did they believe that Jerusalem, that great city,

       could be destroyed according to the words of the prophets. And

       they were like unto the Jews who were at Jerusalem, who sought to

       take away the life of my father.

      1 Nephi 2:14

       14 And it came to pass that my father did speak unto them in the

       valley of Lemuel, with power, being filled with the Spirit, until

       their frames did shake before him. And he did confound them,

       that they durst not utter against him; wherefore, they did as he

       commanded them.

      1 Nephi 2:15

       15 And my father dwelt in a tent.

      1 Nephi 2:16

       16 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, being exceedingly young,

       nevertheless being large in stature, and also having great

       desires to know of the mysteries of God, wherefore, I did cry

       unto the Lord; and behold he did visit me, and did soften my

       heart that I did believe all the words which had been spoken by

       my father; wherefore, I did not rebel against him like unto my

       brothers.

      1 Nephi 2:17

       17 And I spake unto Sam, making known unto him the things which

       the Lord had manifested unto me by his Holy Spirit. And it came

       to pass that he believed in my words.

      1 Nephi 2:18

       18 But, behold, Laman and Lemuel would not hearken unto my

       words; and being grieved because of the hardness of their hearts

       I cried unto the Lord for them.

      1 Nephi 2:19

       19 And it came to pass that the Lord spake unto me, saying:

       Blessed art thou, Nephi, because of thy faith, for thou hast

       sought me diligently, with lowliness of heart.

      1 Nephi 2:20

       20 And inasmuch as ye shall keep my commandments, ye shall

       prosper, and shall be led to a land of promise; yea, even a land

       which I have prepared for you; yea, a land which is choice above

       all other lands.

      1 Nephi 2:21

       21 And inasmuch as thy brethren shall rebel against thee, they

       shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord.

      1 Nephi 2:22

       22 And inasmuch as thou shalt keep my commandments, thou shalt

       be made a ruler and a teacher over thy brethren.

      1 Nephi 2:23

       23 For behold, in that day that they shall rebel against me, I

       will curse them even with a sore curse, and they shall have no

       power over thy seed except they shall rebel against me also.

      1 Nephi 2:24

       24 And if it so be that they rebel against me, they shall be a

       scourge unto thy seed, to stir them up in the ways of

       remembrance.

      1 Nephi 3 Chapter 3

      1 Nephi 3:1

       1 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, returned from speaking with

       the Lord, to the tent of my father.

      1 Nephi 3:2

       2 And it came to pass that he spake unto me, saying: Behold I
