2 Nephi 9:5

Yea, I know that ye know that in the body he shall show himself

unto those at Jerusalem, from whence we came;

for it is expedient that it should be among them;

for it behooveth the great Creator that he suffereth himself

to become subject unto man in the flesh, and die for all men,

that all men might become subject unto him.

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 9:25

Wherefore, he has given a law;

and where there is no law given there is no punishment;

and where there is no punishment there is no condemnation;

and where there is no condemnation

the mercies of the Holy One of Israel have claim upon them,

because of the atonement;

for they are delivered by the power of him.

2 Nephi 9:26

For the atonement satisfieth the demands of his justice

upon all those who have not the law given to them,

that they are delivered from that awful monster, death and hell, and the devil,

and the lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment;

and they are restored to that God who gave them breath,

which is the Holy One of Israel.

2 Nephi 9:27

But wo unto him that has the law given,

yea, that has all the commandments of God, like unto us,

and that transgresseth them, and that wasteth the days of his probation,

for awful is his state!

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 9:36

Wo unto them who commit whoredoms,

for they shall be thrust down to hell.

2 Nephi 9:37

Yea, wo unto those that worship idols,

for the devil of all devils delighteth in them.

2 Nephi 9:40

O, my beloved brethren, give ear to my words.

Remember the greatness of the Holy One of Israel.

Do not say that I have spoken hard things against you;

for if ye do, ye will revile against the truth;

for I have spoken the words of your Maker.

I know that the words of truth are hard against all uncleanness;

but the righteous fear them not,

for they love the truth and are not shaken.

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 9:43

But the things of the wise and the prudent shall be hid from them forever —

yea, that happiness which is prepared for the saints.

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.

2 Nephi 9:53

And behold how great the covenants of the Lord,

and how great his condescensions unto the children of men;

and because of his greatness, and his grace and mercy,

he has promised unto us

that our seed shall not utterly be destroyed, according to the flesh,

but that he would preserve them;

and in future generations they shall become

a righteous branch unto the house of Israel.
