1 Nephi 2:1–2

For behold, it came to pass that the Lord spake unto my father, yea, even in a dream, and said unto him:

“Blessed art thou Lehi, because of the things which thou hast done; and because thou hast been faithful and declared unto this people the things which I commanded thee, behold, they seek to take away thy life.”

And it came to pass that the Lord commanded my father, even in a dream, that he should take his family and depart into the wilderness.
