66 Wherefore, my brethren, I would that ye should consider that the things which have been written upon the plates of brass, are true;
67 And they testify that a man must be obedient to the commandments of God.
68 Wherefore, ye need not suppose that I and my father are the only ones that have testified, and also taught them.
69 Wherefore, if ye shall be obedient to the commandments, and endure to the end, ye shall be saved at the last day.
70 And thus it is. Amen.
2 Nephi 1 Intro: An account of the death of Lehi. Nephi's brethren rebelleth against him. The Lord warns Nephi to depart into the wilderness. His journeyings in the wilderness, &c.
1 And now it came to pass after I, Nephi, had made an end of teaching my brethren, our father, Lehi, also spake many things unto them, how great things the Lord had done for them, in bringing them out of the land of Jerusalem.
2 And he spake unto them concerning their rebellions upon the waters, and the mercies of God in sparing their lives, that they were not swallowed up in the sea.
3 And he also spake unto them concerning the land of promise which they had obtained, how merciful the Lord had been in warning us that we should flee out of the land of Jerusalem.
4 For, behold, said he, I have seen a vision, in which I know that Jerusalem is destroyed;
5 And had we remained in Jerusalem, we should also have perished.
