Sariah, The Lord has spoken unto me. It is not meet to take my family
into the wilderness alone;
but that my sons should
take daughters to wife,
that they might raise up seed
unto the Lord in the land of promise. I will gather our sons.
And as a family, we can thank the Lord
for answering my prayers as well.
And we shall take daughters to wife,
that we might raise up children... Unto the Lord,
in the land of promise. Yes! But a wife!
And a family!
Ishmael!
Laman? We did not expect to
ever see you again.
Where are Lehi and Sariah? Ishmael, our father sends us
with a message. We must speak with you. Of course.
Come, sit.
We doubted our father's
vision for a time, but in our journey
to get the plates, we saw an angel. As bright as the
sun at noonday in the cave where we stood.
Our father was shown that
Jerusalem will be destroyed ... That many shall perish
by the sword, and many more carried away
captive into Babylon. The Lord desires that the
House of Ishmael join with the house of Lehi
in the wilderness ... To journey to a land of promise that He has prepared for us.
The Lord wishes that
I and my family go with Lehi and his family
to the wilderness? Yes.
We know that Lehi
is a faithful man. Do we not also believe
what he has taught, and the words
of all the prophets?
Father Ishmael, our two families are a branch
of the House of Israel. The Lord desires that
our families unite, that we might inherit
the land of promise.
Come with us.
Let us ask the Lord.
