Lehi and Ishmael and their children continue on the journey in the wilderness to the Land of Bountiful. There are many trials, including Ishmael's death and a lack of food due to a broken bow, but the Lord blesses them and gives them the Liahona which works according to their faith and obedience. Nephi is commanded to build a ship. He quotes Isaiah and teaches his brothers about Christ's relationship with the Children of Israel.
