3 Nephi 27:33
33 And it came to pass that when Jesus had ended these sayings

way which leads to death, and many there be that travel therein,
until the night cometh, wherein no man can work.
3 Nephi 28
Chapter 28
3 Nephi 28:1
1 And it came to pass when Jesus had said these words, he spake

ye desire of me, after that I am gone to the Father?
3 Nephi 28:2
2 And they all spake, save it were three, saying: We desire that
