unto them.

      3 Nephi 19:16

       16 And it came to pass that he spake unto the multitude, and

       commanded them that they should kneel down again upon the earth,

       and also that his disciples should kneel down upon the earth.

      3 Nephi 19:17

       17 And it came to pass that when they had all knelt down upon

       the earth, he commanded his disciples that they should pray.

      3 Nephi 19:18

       18 And behold, they began to pray; and they did pray unto Jesus,

       calling him their Lord and their God.

      3 Nephi 19:19

       19 And it came to pass that Jesus departed out of the midst of

       them, and went a little way off from them and bowed himself to

       the earth, and he said:

      3 Nephi 19:20

       20 Father, I thank thee that thou hast given the Holy Ghost unto

       these whom I have chosen; and it is because of their belief in me

       that I have chosen them out of the world.

      3 Nephi 19:21

       21 Father, I pray thee that thou wilt give the Holy Ghost unto

       all them that shall believe in their words.

      3 Nephi 19:22

       22 Father, thou hast given them the Holy Ghost because they

       believe in me; and thou seest that they believe in me because

       thou hearest them, and they pray unto me; and they pray unto me

       because I am with them.

      3 Nephi 19:23

       23 And now Father, I pray unto thee for them, and also for all

       those who shall believe on their words, that they may believe in

       me, that I may be in them as thou, Father, art in me, that we may

       be one.

      3 Nephi 19:24

       24 And it came to pass that when Jesus had thus prayed unto the

       Father, he came unto his disciples, and behold, they did still

       continue, without ceasing, to pray unto him; and they did not

       multiply many words, for it was given unto them what they should

       pray, and they were filled with desire.

      3 Nephi 19:25

       25 And it came to pass that Jesus blessed them as they did pray

       unto him; and his countenance did smile upon them, and the light

       of his countenance did shine upon them, and behold they were as

       white as the countenance and also the garments of Jesus; and

       behold the whiteness thereof did exceed all the whiteness, yea,

       even there could be nothing upon earth so white as the whiteness

       thereof.

      3 Nephi 19:26

       26 And Jesus said unto them: Pray on; nevertheless they did not

       cease to pray.

      3 Nephi 19:27

       27 And he turned from them again, and went a little way off and

       bowed himself to the earth; and he prayed again unto the Father,

       saying:

      3 Nephi 19:28

       28 Father, I thank thee that thou hast purified those whom I

       have chosen, because of their faith, and I pray for them, and

       also for them who shall believe on their words, that they may be

       purified in me, through faith on their words, even as they are

       purified in me.

      3 Nephi 19:29

       29 Father, I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou

       hast given me out of the world, because of their faith, that they

       may be purified in me, that I may be in them as thou, Father, art

       in me, that we may be one, that I may be glorified in them.

      3 Nephi 19:30

       30 And when Jesus had spoken these words he came again unto his

       disciples; and behold they did pray steadfastly, without ceasing,

       unto him; and he did smile upon them again; and behold they were

       white, even as Jesus.

      3 Nephi 19:31

       31 And it came to pass that he went again a little way off and

       prayed unto the Father;

      3 Nephi 19:32

       32 And tongue cannot speak the words which he prayed, neither

       can be written by man the words which he prayed.

      3 Nephi 19:33

       33 And the multitude did hear and do bear record; and their

       hearts were open and they did understand in their hearts the

       words which he prayed.

      3 Nephi 19:34

       34 Nevertheless, so great and marvelous were the words which he

       prayed that they cannot be written, neither can they be uttered

       by man.

      3 Nephi 19:35

       35 And it came to pass that when Jesus had made an end of

       praying he came again to the disciples, and said unto them: So

       great faith have I never seen among all the Jews; wherefore I

       could not show unto them so great miracles, because of their

       unbelief.

      3 Nephi 19:36

       36 Verily I say unto you, there are none of them that have seen

       so great things as ye have seen; neither have they heard so great

       things as ye have heard.

      3 Nephi 20 Chapter 20

      3 Nephi 20:1

       1 And it came to pass that he commanded the multitude that they

       should cease to pray, and also his disciples. And he commanded

       them that they should not cease to pray in their hearts.

      3 Nephi 20:2

       2 And he commanded them that they should arise and stand up upon

       their feet. And they arose up and stood upon their feet.

      3 Nephi 20:3

       3 And it came to pass that he brake bread again and blessed it,

       and gave to the disciples to eat.

      3 Nephi 20:4

       4 And when they had eaten he commanded them that they should

       break bread, and give unto the multitude.

      3 Nephi 20:5

       5 And when they had given unto the multitude he also gave them

       wine to drink, and commanded them that they should give unto the

       multitude.

      3 Nephi 20:6

       6 Now, there had been no bread, neither wine, brought by the

       disciples, neither by the multitude;
