2 Nephi 6:2

Behold, my beloved brethren,

I, Jacob, having been called of God,

and ordained after the manner of his holy order,

and having been consecrated by my brother Nephi,

unto whom ye look as a king or a protector,

and on whom ye depend for safety,

behold ye know that I have spoken unto you exceedingly many things.



2 Nephi 6:3

Nevertheless, I speak unto you again;

for I am desirous for the welfare of your souls.

Yea, mine anxiety is great for you;

and ye yourselves know that it ever has been.

For I have exhorted you with all diligence;

and I have taught you the words of my father;

and I have spoken unto you concerning all things

which are written, from the creation of the world.



2 Nephi 6:5

And now, the words which I shall read are they

which Isaiah spake concerning all the house of Israel;

wherefore, they may be likened unto you,

for ye are of the house of Israel.

And there are many things which have been spoken by Isaiah

which may be likened unto you,

because ye are of the house of Israel.



2 Nephi 6:8

And now I, Jacob, would speak somewhat concerning these words.

For behold, the Lord has shown me

that those who were at Jerusalem, from whence we came,

have been slain and carried away captive.
