1 Nephi 14:28

And, behold, I, Nephi, am forbidden that I should write the remainder of the things which I saw and heard; wherefore, the things which I have written, sufficeth me; and I have not written but a small part of the things which I saw.

Simple English

I am not allowed to write the rest of the things I saw and heard. So the things I have written are enough for me. I have written only a small part of the things I saw.

Paraphrase

I’m forbidden to write the rest of what I saw and heard. What I have written is enough for me—though it’s only a small part of what I saw.
