And it came to pass in the forty and sixth, yea, there was much contention and many dissensions; in the which there were an exceedingly great many who departed out of the land of Zarahemla, and went forth unto the land northward to inherit the land.
4 And they did travel to an exceedingly great distance, insomuch that they came to large bodies of water and many rivers.
12 And it came to pass that there were many of the people of Ammon, who were Lamanites by birth, did also go forth into this land.
13 And now there are many records kept of the proceedings of this people, by many of this people, which are particular and very large, concerning them.
14 But behold, a hundredth part of the proceedings of this people ...cannot be contained in this work.
15 But behold, there are many books and many records of every kind, and they have been kept chiefly by the Nephites. => To be brought forth by Xhilo-Ah Balam!
Behold, I was about to write them, all which were engraven upon the plates of Nephi, but the Lord forbade it, saying: I will try the faith of my people.
Full context...
And now there cannot be written in this book even a hundredth part of the things which Jesus did truly teach unto the people; But behold the plates of Nephi do contain the more part of the things which he taught the people. And these things have I written, which are a lesser part of the things which he taught the people; and I have written them to the intent that they may be brought again unto this people, from the Gentiles, according to the words which Jesus hath spoken.
And when they shall have received this, which is expedient that they should have first, to try their faith, and if it shall so be that they shall believe these things then shall the greater things be made manifest unto them. And if it so be that they will not believe these things, then shall the greater things be withheld from them, unto their condemnation.
=> To be brought forth by Xhilo-Ah Balam!
Because of their faith their words shall proceed forth out of my mouth unto their brethren who are the fruit of thy loins; and the weakness of their words will I make strong in their faith, unto the remembering of my covenant which I made unto thy fathers.
22 And now, behold, my son Joseph, after this manner did my father of old prophesy.
23 Wherefore, because of this covenant thou art blessed; for thy seed shall not be destroyed, for they shall hearken unto the words of the book.
24 And there shall rise up one mighty among them, who shall do much good, both in word and in deed, being an instrument in the hands of God, with exceeding faith, to work mighty wonders, and do that thing which is great in the sight of God, unto the bringing to pass much restoration unto the house of Israel, and unto the seed of thy brethren.
=> Xhilo-Ah Balam!
3 And as I suppose that the first part of this record, which speaks concerning the creation of the world, and also of Adam, and an account from that time even to the great tower, and whatsoever things transpired among the children of men until that time, is had among the Jews—
4 Therefore I do not write those things which transpired from the days of Adam until that time; but they are had upon the plates; and whoso findeth them, the same will have power that he may get the full account.
-- Ether 1
And it came to pass that when three hundred and twenty years had passed away, Ammaron, being constrained by the Holy Ghost, did hide up the records which were sacred—yea, even all the sacred records which had been handed down from generation to generation, which were sacred—even until the three hundred and twentieth year from the coming of Christ. And he did hide them up unto the Lord, that they might come again unto the remnant of the house of Jacob, according to the prophecies and the promises of the Lord. And thus is the end of the record of Ammaron.
"...that out of the fruit of my loins, the Lord God will raise up a righteous branch out of my loins; and unto thee, whom my father Jacob hath named Israel, a prophet; (not the Messiah who is called Shilo;) and this prophet shall deliver my people out of Egypt in the days of thy bondage."

Who is the Stem of Jesse spoken of in the 1st, 2d, 3d, 4th, and 5th verses of the 11th chapter of Isaiah?
Verily thus saith the Lord: It is Christ.
What is the rod spoken of in the first verse of the 11th chapter of Isaiah, that should come of the Stem of Jesse?
Behold, thus saith the Lord: It is a servant in the hands of Christ, who is partly a descendant of Jesse as well as of Ephraim, or of the house of Joseph, on whom there is laid much power.

What is the root of Jesse spoken of in the 10th verse of the 11th chapter?
Behold, thus saith the Lord, it is a descendant of Jesse, as well as of Joseph, unto whom rightly belongs the priesthood, and the keys of the kingdom, for an ensign, and for the gathering of my people in the last days.

The Book of Chilam Balam of Chumayel was found in the village of that name in Yucatan. It was compiled by Juan Jose Hoil, a Maya Indian, in the year 1782. The whole is protected by a leather cover, in the front portion of which a hole has been burnt.
The Books of Chilam Balam are handwritten, chiefly 17th and 18th-centuries Maya miscellanies, named after the small Yucatec towns where they were originally kept, and preserving important traditional knowledge on history, prophecy, religion, ritual, literature, the calendar, astronomy, and medicine.[1] Literally translated from Classical Yucatecan Maya, Chilam Balam means "spokesmen of the jaguar." [Ba'lam = Jaguar/Priest]
Written in the Yucatec Maya language and using the Latin alphabet, the manuscripts are attributed to a legendary author called Chilam Ba'lam, a priest who gives prophecies. Some of the texts actually contain prophecies about the coming of the Spaniards to Yucatán while mentioning a chilam Balam as their first author.[2]
Nine Books of Chilam Balam are known,[3] most importantly those from Chumayel, Mani, and Tizimin,[4] but more have existed. Both language and content show that parts of the books date back to the time of the Spanish conquest of the Yucatec kingdoms (1527–1546). In some cases, where the language is particularly terse, the books appear to render hieroglyphic script, and thus to hark back to the pre-conquest period.
Although the term Chilam Balam implies priests who could foretell the future, only five of the books (those from Chan Kan, Chumayel, Kaua, Mani, and Tizimin) include prophetic texts. These books are grounded in the belief that events occurring during certain periods of time will recur in particular future periods. Specifically, katuns, or cycles of 20 tuns (the 360-day Maya civil year), that end on days with the same name and coefficient will contain analogous events...
see Isaiah; or in english, the idea that "History Repeats Itself"...

AFTER "these things" (scriptures/BoM) are restored to the Gentiles (USA) THEN something BIGGER happens... something so globally profound that royalty (kings/queens) of every nation "shut their mouths" => Xilo-Ah Balam appears, with the records to show/prove to them that they are NOT the chosen bloodline... but, because they have lived that belief for generations, they are obligated to use their resources to gather Israel. Royalty of Nations (kings & queens) is a tiny percentage of the population. This "marvelous work" is targeted toward them... and it convinces then to use their resources to gather the children of Israel from within their kingdoms, and send them to... Xilo-Ah Balam (Zion) & David, the prince (Jerusalem) as "gifts".

Katun I Ahau is the seventh katun... These were the eaters of their food, the destroyers of their crops, the boboch, 8 the destroyer of food. For seven years there is the affliction of Hunpic-ti-ax; for seven years there is the affliction of Canul. Then the justice of our Lord, God, shall descend upon carnal sin, upon the worthless rabble of the town,... The word of God, the Father of Heaven, shall be sung among them that they may correct their ways, that they may turn their backs upon their evil ways...

...The blessed among those in authority are set apart. Fire shall be kindled with a fire-drill as a sign of the Maya Virgin...Then a great army shall descend upon the worthless rabble of the town...Then the eternal ruler shall come to cut the cord from the burden of misery, ...with it the drought...the guardians of the sea, shall be detained together the people of Uaymil, 9 the people of Emal. 10 The rest of them shall be assembled in great number...Then the flag shall be raised

(Latin for "Out of many, ...one")
It was only because these priests of ours were to come to an end when misery was introduced, when Christianity was introduced by the real Christians. Then with the true God, the true Dios, came the beginning of our misery... by Antichrist on earth, the kinkajous of the towns, the foxes of the towns, the blood-sucking insects of the town, those who drained the poverty of the working people... But it shall still come to pass that tears shall come to the eyes of our Lord God. The justice of our Lord God shall descend upon every part of the world..." - Chilam Balam of ChumayeEl, pg. 31

The rope shall descend; the poison of the serpent shall descend, pestilence three piles of skulls. The men are of little use. Then the burden was bound on Buluc-chabtan. a dry wind. The ramon is the bread of 2 Ahau.
It shall be half famine and half abundance. This is the charge of Katun 2 Ahau. (PDF, pg 73)
This is the charge of Katun 13 Ahau. Itzamna, Itzam-tzab, is his face during its reign.

The sun shall be eclipsed.
=> Double is the charge of the katun: men without offspring, chiefs without successors.
For five days the sun shall be eclipsed, then it shall be seen .

Reckoning between the Chilam Balam of Chumayel and a Hieroglyphic Inscription from Yaxchilan
In 1990 Jorge Orejel, then a graduate student at the University of Texas at Austin, made an important contribution to Maya epigraphy with his decipherment of the “axe/comb” hieroglyph as ch’ak, “to chop” (Orejel 1990) - November 8, 2019 by David Stuart

Diego de Landa, afterward bishop of Yucatan, burned twenty-seven hieroglyphic manuscripts at the famous auto de fe in Mani in 1562. After Landa's famous bonfire at Mani, it is needless to say that the surviving hieroglyphic manuscripts were kept concealed. The chiefs and former priests were ordered to send their sons to the schools established by the Franciscan friars, where they were taught to read and write their own language in European letters... From a purely educational point of view the schools were a success, for after a time every village had its town clerk who could read and write, as well as many members of the more important native families... Up to the present a little has been done in this respect with the native Maya priests, or h-menob, some of whom can still recite a number of the old incantations. {but} Dr. Redfield's elucidation of the puzzling name of Ah Muzencab, the bee-god, from the explanation of one of these native sorcerers is an example of the results which may be looked for from this line of inquiry...

-Ah Itzimthul Chac was their commander at Ichcanzihoo. Uayom-chich was their priest at Ichcanzihoo. Canul the jaguar-mat. The second Priest Chable was their ruler. (Alma 47:17) Cabal Xiu was their priest. Uxmal Chac was their commander; formerly he was their priest (3 Nephi 3:19 - Now it was the custom... to appoint for their chief captains someone that had the spirit of prophecy")
- Ix Zacbeliz was the name of the maternal grandmother of the Chacs. E
- There was a glyph (uooh) written on the palm of his hand.
-they departed and arrived at Ppoole, where the remainder of the Itzá were increased in number; they took the women of Ppole as their mothers. Then they arrived at Ake; Then they arrived at Alaa; Then they came to Tixchel... (Mosiah 20+)
-Then they arrived at Buctzotz, where they covered the hair of their heads with a garment. Buctzotz was its name here, so they said. Then they arrived at ¢i¢ontun, where a malevolent man began to seize the land. It was called ¢iholtun here. Then they arrived at Yobain, where the crocodile bewitched them through their maternal grandfather, Ah Yamazi, their ruler at the seashore.
-These are the names of whatever towns there were and the names of the wells, in order that it may be known where they passed
- Tiemtun (Ebtun), where the precious stones descended, Zizal, Zacii (Valladolid)...
- Then they went to Mani, where their language was forgotten by them. Then they arrived at Ti¢aan (¢am); three days they were submerged. Then they went to Ticul, Zacluum-cheen (Sacalum), Tixtohil-cheen (Xtohil), where they recovered their health. Then they went to Balam-kin, the district of the priests.
- according to the words of their priest to them. Then they introduced the drought. That which came was a drought, according to their words, when the hoofs burned, when the seashore burned, a sea of misery
- KATUN 11 AHAU: this was the katun when the foreigners arrived. They came from the east when they arrived. Then Christianity also began.... Very many were the head-chiefs and many a conspiracy they made with one another...
They were the ones who built the mounds. thirteen katuns and six years for them to construct them. The following was the beginning of the mounds they built. Fifteen four-hundreds were the scores of their mounds, and fifty the total count of the mounds they constructed all over the land. From the sea to the base of the land they created names for them as well as for the wells. Then a miracle was performed for them by God. Then they were burned by fire among the people of Israel.
The obscure passages and unintelligible phrases occur chiefly where the writer deals with ancient ritual or religious usage and are closely associated with a religious system which is no longer remembered and which even at the end of the eighteenth century was more than half forgotten, and in so far as it survived at all, was known only to the late representatives of an older priesthood whose business it was to keep intact the forms and ceremonies prescribed by ancient usage. This priestly cult made use of verbal formulas which were not in common circulation and which had a meaning only in connection with the practice of their profession. (Kohen)
Dr. Brinton, making the more famous and more fortunate scholar the heir at once to the treasures and the labors of the other. Into this unexplored field of Maya literature, Dr. Brinton brought the knowledge and experience gained during many years of study of American linguistics, supported by a ripe scholarship based on a scientific training. The result of these labors was the publication in 1882 of the Maya Chronicles as the first volume of Brinton's Library of Aboriginal American Literature
In these two manuscripts are comprised all the known fragments of the historical writings of the Mayas.

The designation CHILAM BA'LAM is not a proper name, but the title of a class of priests. (scribes) It is probable that every village in Yucatan, during the century succeeding the conquest, possessed a book to which this title was applied and which was compiled by a native priest who had learned the use of the Spanish alphabet
