You are probably thinking of the Book of Mormon. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called "Mormons") believe that Joseph Smith was lead to the place where metal plates were buried near his home by an angel. These plates were translated by the power of God and became the Book of Mormon.
Later, Joseph Smith also translated some Egyptian papyri into what is now known as the Book of Abraham in the Pearl of Great Price.
