The Book of Mormon - exploring a word pattern

. . . Pattern Five repentance:

[003]he was obedient unto the word of the Lord
[004]they have rejected the words of the prophets.
[009]a dark and dreary wilderness
[010]all mankind were in a lost and in a fallen state, and ever would be save they should rely on this Redeemer
[012]repent and come unto him
[013a]I also beheld the prophet who should prepare the way before him
[013c]whoso repenteth not must perish
[016a]we did follow the directions of the ball
[017b]I, Nephi, did make a bellows wherewith to blow the fire . . . I did smite two stones together that I might make fire
[018]the children of Israel were in bondage; and ye know that they were laden with tasks, which were grievous to be borne
[020]they should murmur no more against their father; neither should they withhold their labor from me . . . God had commanded me that I should build a ship
[021]there arose a great storm . . . they must perish save that they should repent of their iniquities . . . after they had loosed me, behold, I took the compass, and it did work
[024]he led them through the deserts
[025]the house of Israel, sooner or later, will be scattered upon all the face of the earth
[027]they will reject the Holy One of Israel . . . he will take away from them the lands of their possessions
