169 And the Lord did shew me from time to time after what manner I should work the timbers of the ship.

170 Now I, Nephi, did not work the timbers after the manner which was learned by men, neither did I build the ship after the manner of men;

171 But I did build it after the manner which the Lord had shewn unto me; wherefore, it was not after the manner of men.

172 And I, Nephi, did go into the mount oft, and I did pray oft unto the Lord; wherefore, the Lord shewed unto me great things.

173 And it came to pass that after I had finished the ship according to the word of the Lord, my brethren beheld that it was good and that the workmanship thereof was exceeding fine;

174 Wherefore, they did humble themselves again before the Lord.

175 And it came to pass that the voice of the Lord came unto my father, that we should arise and go down into the ship.

176 And it came to pass that on the morrow, after we had prepared all things, much fruits and meat from the wilderness, and honey in abundance, and provisions, according to that which the Lord had commanded us,

177 We did go down into the ship with all our loading and our seeds, and whatsoever thing we had brought with us, every one according to his age;

178 Wherefore, we did all go down into the ship, with our wives and our children.

179 And now, my father had begat two sons in the wilderness; the eldest was called Jacob, and the younger, Joseph.
