Moses is there painted, holding up inhis left h<strong>and</strong> his rod, which became a serpent; <strong>and</strong>, with a furious gesture, calling down theplagues upon the Egyptians.

Hesaid: “0 gods, I shall be the one.”And again the gods spoke: “(<strong>and</strong>) who else?”Thereupon they looked around at one another. They -pondered the matter. They said toone another: “How may -this be? How may we decide?”None dared; no one else came forward. Everyone was afraid; they (all) drew back.And now present was one man, Nanauatzin; he stood there listening among the others tothat which was discussed. Then the gods called to this one. They said to him:“Thou shalt be the one, 0 Nanauatzin.”He then eagerly accepted the decision; he took it gladly. He said: “It is well, 0 gods; youhave been good to me.( Taken from the <strong>Book</strong> Exploring The L<strong>and</strong>s <strong>of</strong> The <strong>Book</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Mormon</strong> by Joseph L.
