 61:23 And now, concerning my servants, Sidney Rigdon, Joseph Smith, Jun., and Oliver Cowdery, let them come not again upon the waters, save it be upon the canal, while journeying unto their homes; or in other words they shall not come upon the waters to journey, save upon the canal.

 61:24 Behold, I, the Lord, have appointed a way for the journeying of my saints; and behold, this is the way-- that after they leave the canal they shall journey by land, inasmuch as they are commanded to journey and go up unto the land of Zion;

 61:25 And they shall do like unto the children of Israel, pitching their tents by the way.

 61:26 And, behold, this commandment you shall give unto all your brethren.

 61:27 Nevertheless, unto whom is given power to command the waters, unto him it is given by the Spirit to know all his ways;

 61:28 Wherefore, let him do as the Spirit of the living God commandeth him, whether upon the land or upon the waters, as it remaineth with me to do hereafter.
