68 And it came to pass that after I, Nephi, had been in the Land Bountiful for the space of many days, the voice of the Lord came unto me, saying: "Arise and get thee into the mountain."
69 And it came to pass that I arose and went up into the mountain and cried unto the Lord.
70 And it came to pass that the Lord spake unto me saying: "Thou shalt construct a ship after the manner which I shall show thee, that I may carry thy people across these waters."
71 And I saith: "Lord, whither shall I go that I may find ore to molten, that I may make tools to construct the ship after the manner which thou hast shown unto me?"
72 And it came to pass that the Lord told me whither I should go to find ore that I might make tools.
73 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did make bellows wherewith to blow the fire, of the skins of beasts;
74 And after that I had made bellows that I might have wherewith to blow the fire, I did smite two stones together that I might make fire,
75 For the Lord had not hitherto suffered that we should make much fire as we journeyed in the wilderness,
76 For He saith: "I will make that thy food shall become sweet, that ye cook it not;
77 And I will also be your light in the wilderness;
78 And I will prepare the way before you, if it so be that ye shall keep My commandments;
