2 Nephi 9:2

That he has spoken unto the Jews, by the mouth of his holy prophets,

even from the beginning down, from generation to generation,

until the time comes that they shall be restored

to the true church and fold of God;

when they shall be gathered home to the lands of their inheritance,

and shall be established in all their lands of promise.



2 Nephi 9:12

And this death of which I have spoken, which is the spiritual death,

shall deliver up its dead; which spiritual death is hell;

wherefore, death and hell must deliver up their dead,

and hell must deliver up its captive spirits,

and the grave must deliver up its captive bodies,

and the bodies and the spirits of men will be restored one to the other;

and it is by the power of the resurrection of the Holy One of Israel.



2 Nephi 9:14

Wherefore, we shall have a perfect knowledge of all our guilt,

and our uncleanness, and our nakedness;

and the righteous shall have a perfect knowledge

of their enjoyment, and their righteousness,

being clothed with purity,

yea, even with the robe of righteousness.



2 Nephi 9:16

And assuredly, as the Lord liveth,

for the Lord God hath spoken it,

and it is his eternal word, which cannot pass away,

that they who are righteous shall be righteous still,

and they who are filthy shall be filthy still;

wherefore, they who are filthy are the devil and his angels;

and they shall go away into everlasting fire, prepared for them;

and their torment is as a lake of fire and brimstone,

whose flame ascendeth up forever and ever and has no end.



2 Nephi 9:18

But, behold, the righteous, the saints of the Holy One of Israel,

they who have believed in the Holy One of Israel,

they who have endured the crosses of the world, and despised the shame of it,

they shall inherit the kingdom of God,

which was prepared for them from the foundation of the world,

and their joy shall be full forever.



2 Nephi 9:28

O that cunning plan of the evil one!

O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men!

When they are learned they think they are wise,

and they hearken not unto the counsel of God,

for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves,

wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not.

And they shall perish.



2 Nephi 9:30

But wo unto the rich, who are rich as to the things of the world.

For because they are rich they despise the poor, and they persecute the meek,

and their hearts are upon their treasures;

wherefore, their treasure is their god.

And behold, their treasure shall perish with them also.



2 Nephi 9:33

Wo unto the uncircumcised of heart,

for a knowledge of their iniquities shall smite them at the last day.



2 Nephi 9:38

And, in fine, wo unto all those who die in their sins;

for they shall return to God, and behold his face, and remain in their sins.



2 Nephi 9:42

And whoso knocketh, to him will he open;

and the wise, and the learned, and they that are rich,

who are puffed up because of their learning, and their wisdom, and their riches —

yea, they are they whom he despiseth;

and save they shall cast these things away,

and consider themselves fools before God,

and come down in the depths of humility,

he will not open unto them.



2 Nephi 9:44

O, my beloved brethren, remember my words.

Behold, I take off my garments, and I shake them before you;

I pray the God of my salvation that he view me with his all-searching eye;

wherefore, ye shall know at the last day,

when all men shall be judged of their works,

that the God of Israel did witness

that I shook your iniquities from my soul,

and that I stand with brightness before him,

and am rid of your blood.
