19 And it came to pass that they were angry with me again, and

      sought to lay hands upon me; but behold, one of the daughters of

      Ishmael, yea, and also her mother, and one of the sons of

      Ishmael, did plead with my brethren, insomuch that they did

      soften their hearts; and they did cease striving to take away my

      life.

      1 Nephi 7:20

       20 And it came to pass that they were sorrowful, because of

      their wickedness, insomuch that they did bow down before me, and

      did plead with me that I would forgive them of the thing that

      they had done against me.

      1 Nephi 7:21

       21 And it came to pass that I did frankly forgive them all that

      they had done, and I did exhort them that they would pray unto

      the Lord their God for forgiveness. And it came to pass that

      they did so. And after they had done praying unto the Lord we

      did again travel on our journey towards the tent of our father.

      1 Nephi 7:22

       22 And it came to pass that we did come down unto the tent of

      our father. And after I and my brethren and all the house of

      Ishmael had come down unto the tent of my father, they did give

      thanks unto the Lord their God; and they did offer sacrifice and

      burnt offerings unto him.

      1 Nephi 8 Chapter 8

      1 Nephi 8:1

       1 And it came to pass that we had gathered together all manner

      of seeds of every kind, both of grain of every kind, and also of

      the seeds of fruit of every kind.

      1 Nephi 8:2

       2 And it came to pass that while my father tarried in the

      wilderness he spake unto us, saying: Behold, I have dreamed a

      dream; or, in other words, I have seen a vision.

      1 Nephi 8:3

       3 And behold, because of the thing which I have seen, I have

      reason to rejoice in the Lord because of Nephi and also of Sam;

      for I have reason to suppose that they, and also many of their

      seed, will be saved.

      1 Nephi 8:4

       4 But behold, Laman and Lemuel, I fear exceedingly because of

      you; for behold, methought I saw in my dream, a dark and dreary

      wilderness.

      1 Nephi 8:5

       5 And it came to pass that I saw a man, and he was dressed in a

      white robe; and he came and stood before me.

      1 Nephi 8:6

       6 And it came to pass that he spake unto me, and bade me follow

      him.

      1 Nephi 8:7

       7 And it came to pass that as I followed him I beheld myself

      that I was in a dark and dreary waste.

      1 Nephi 8:8

       8 And after I had traveled for the space of many hours in

      darkness, I began to pray unto the Lord that he would have mercy

      on me, according to the multitude of his tender mercies.

      1 Nephi 8:9

       9 And it came to pass after I had prayed unto the Lord I beheld

      a large and spacious field.

      1 Nephi 8:10

       10 And it came to pass that I beheld a tree, whose fruit was

      desirable to make one happy.

      1 Nephi 8:11

       11 And it came to pass that I did go forth and partake of the

      fruit thereof; and I beheld that it was most sweet, above all

      that I ever before tasted. Yea, and I beheld that the fruit

      thereof was white, to exceed all the whiteness that I had ever

      seen.

      1 Nephi 8:12

       12 And as I partook of the fruit thereof it filled my soul with

      exceedingly great joy; wherefore, I began to be desirous that my

      family should partake of it also; for I knew that it was

      desirable above all other fruit.

      1 Nephi 8:13

       13 And as I cast my eyes round about, that perhaps I might

      discover my family also, I beheld a river of water; and it ran

      along, and it was near the tree of which I was partaking the

      fruit.

      1 Nephi 8:14

       14 And I looked to behold from whence it came; and I saw the

      head thereof a little way off; and at the head thereof I beheld

      your mother Sariah, and Sam, and Nephi; and they stood as if they

      knew not whither they should go.

      1 Nephi 8:15

       15 And it came to pass that I beckoned unto them; and I also did

      say unto them with a loud voice that they should come unto me,

      and partake of the fruit, which was desirable above all other

      fruit.

      1 Nephi 8:16

       16 And it came to pass that they did come unto me and partake of

      the fruit also.

      1 Nephi 8:17

       17 And it came to pass that I was desirous that Laman and Lemuel

      should come and partake of the fruit also; wherefore, I cast mine

      eyes towards the head of the river, that perhaps I might see

      them.

      1 Nephi 8:18

       18 And it came to pass that I saw them, but they would not come

      unto me and partake of the fruit.

      1 Nephi 8:19

       19 And I beheld a rod of iron, and it extended along the bank of

      the river, and led to the tree by which I stood.

      1 Nephi 8:20

       20 And I also beheld a strait and narrow path, which came along

      by the rod of iron, even to the tree by which I stood; and it

      also led by the head of the fountain, unto a large and spacious

      field, as if it had been a world.

      1 Nephi 8:21

       21 And I saw numberless concourses of people, many of whom were

      pressing forward, that they might obtain the path which led unto

      the tree by which I stood.

      1 Nephi 8:22

       22 And it came to pass that they did come forth, and commence in

      the path which led to the tree.

      1 Nephi 8:23

       23 And it came to pass that there arose a mist of darkness; yea,

      even an exceedingly great mist of darkness, insomuch that they

      who had
