Mosiah 12:6 - Mosiah 12:16
6 Yea, even the very thoughts that any soul should endure endless torment, did cause them to quake and tremble.
7 And thus did the Spirit of the Lord work upon them, for they were the very vilest of sinners.
8 And the Lord saw fit in his infinite mercy to spare them; nevertheless they suffered much anguish of soul, because of their iniquities; and suffering much, fearing that they should be cast off for ever.
9 And it came to pass that they did plead with their father many days, that they might go up to the land of Nephi.
10 And King Mosiah went and inquired of the Lord, if he should let his sons go up among the Lamanites to preach the word.
11 And the Lord said unto Mosiah, Let them go up, for many shall believe on their words, and they shall have eternal life; and I will deliver thy sons out of the hands of the Lamanites.
12 And it came to pass that Mosiah granted that they might go, and do according to their request;
13 And they took their journey into the wilderness, to go up to preach the word among the Lamanites: and I shall give an account of their proceedings hereafter.

15 Therefore he took the records which were engraven on the plates of brass, and also the plates of Nephi, and all the things which he had kept and preserved, according to the commandments of God,
16 After having translated and caused to be written the records which were on the plates of gold, which had been found by the people of Limhi, which were delivered to him by the hand of Limhi;
