1 Nephi 19:22

Now it came to pass that I, Nephi, did teach my brethren these things. And it came to pass that I did read many things to them, which were engraven upon the plates of brass, that they might know concerning the doings of the Lord in other lands, among people of old.

I taught my brothers these things. I read many things to them that were carved on the brass plates. I wanted them to know about what the Lord had done in other lands among people long ago.

I taught my brothers these things. I read to them from the brass plates so they’d know what the Lord had done in other lands among ancient peoples.
