       speak unto my brethren, and also many more things which I do not

       write in this book; for I have written as many of them as were

       expedient for me in mine other book.

      1 Nephi 10:16

       16 And all these things, of which I have spoken, were done as my

       father dwelt in a tent, in the valley of Lemuel.

      1 Nephi 10:17

       17 And it came to pass after I, Nephi, having heard all the

       words of my father, concerning the things which he saw in a

       vision, and also the things which he spake by the power of the

       Holy Ghost, which power he received by faith on the Son of

       God—and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come—I,

       Nephi, was desirous also that I might see, and hear, and know of

       these things, by the power of the Holy Ghost, which is the gift

       of God unto all those who diligently seek him, as well in times

       of old as in the time that he should manifest himself unto the

       children of men.

      1 Nephi 10:18

       18 For he is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever; and the

       way is prepared for all men from the foundation of the world, if

       it so be that they repent and come unto him.

      1 Nephi 10:19

       19 For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries

       of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy

       Ghost, as well in these times as in times of old, and as well in

       times of old as in times to come; wherefore, the course of the

       Lord is one eternal round.

      1 Nephi 10:20

       20 Therefore remember, O man, for all thy doings thou shalt be

       brought into judgment.

      1 Nephi 10:21

       21 Wherefore, if ye have sought to do wickedly in the days of

       your probation, then ye are found unclean before the

       judgment-seat of God; and no unclean thing can dwell with God;

       wherefore, ye must be cast off forever.

      1 Nephi 10:22

       22 And the Holy Ghost giveth authority that I should speak these

       things, and deny them not.

      1 Nephi 11 Chapter 11

      1 Nephi 11:1

       1 For it came to pass after I had desired to know the things

       that my father had seen, and believing that the Lord was able to

       make them known unto me, as I sat pondering in mine heart I was

       caught away in the Spirit of the Lord, yea, into an exceedingly

       high mountain, which I never had before seen, and upon which I

       never had before set my foot.

      1 Nephi 11:2

       2 And the Spirit said unto me: Behold, what desirest thou?

      1 Nephi 11:3

       3 And I said: I desire to behold the things which my father saw.

      1 Nephi 11:4

       4 And the Spirit said unto me: Believest thou that thy father

       saw the tree of which he hath spoken?

      1 Nephi 11:5

       5 And I said: Yea, thou knowest that I believe all the words of

       my father.

      1 Nephi 11:6

       6 And when I had spoken these words, the Spirit cried with a

       loud voice, saying: Hosanna to the Lord, the most high God; for

       he is God over all the earth, yea, even above all. And blessed

       art thou, Nephi, because thou believest in the Son of the most

       high God; wherefore, thou shalt behold the things which thou hast

       desired.

      1 Nephi 11:7

       7 And behold this thing shall be given unto thee for a sign,

       that after thou hast beheld the tree which bore the fruit which

       thy father tasted, thou shalt also behold a man descending out of

       heaven, and him shall ye witness; and after ye have witnessed him

       ye shall bear record that it is the Son of God.

      1 Nephi 11:8

       8 And it came to pass that the Spirit said unto me: Look! And I

       looked and beheld a tree; and it was like unto the tree which my

       father had seen; and the beauty thereof was far beyond, yea,

       exceeding of all beauty; and the whiteness thereof did exceed the

       whiteness of the driven snow.

      1 Nephi 11:9

       9 And it came to pass after I had seen the tree, I said unto the

       Spirit: I behold thou hast shown unto me the tree which is

       precious above all.

      1 Nephi 11:10

       10 And he said unto me: What desirest thou?

      1 Nephi 11:11

       11 And I said unto him: To know the interpretation thereof—for

       I spake unto him as a man speaketh; for I beheld that he was in

       the form of a man; yet nevertheless, I knew that it was the

       Spirit of the Lord; and he spake unto me as a man speaketh with

       another.

      1 Nephi 11:12

       12 And it came to pass that he said unto me: Look! And I looked

       as if to look upon him, and I saw him not; for he had gone from

       before my presence.

      1 Nephi 11:13

       13 And it came to pass that I looked and beheld the great city

       of Jerusalem, and also other cities. And I beheld the city of

       Nazareth; and in the city of Nazareth I beheld a virgin, and she

       was exceedingly fair and white.

      1 Nephi 11:14

       14 And it came to pass that I saw the heavens open; and an angel

       came down and stood before me; and he said unto me: Nephi, what

       beholdest thou?

      1 Nephi 11:15

       15 And I said unto him: A virgin, most beautiful and fair above

       all other virgins.

      1 Nephi 11:16

       16 And he said unto me: Knowest thou the condescension of God?

      1 Nephi 11:17

       17 And I said unto him: I know that he loveth his children;

       nevertheless, I do not know the meaning of all things.

      1 Nephi 11:18

       18 And he said unto me: Behold, the virgin whom thou seest is

       the mother of the Son of God, after the manner of the flesh.

      1 Nephi 11:19

       19 And it came to pass that
