God's Promises Concerning the Gentiles and the Americas
2 Nephi 10:10 - 2 Nephi 10:19
Duration: 1:50
2 Nephi 10:10
But behold, this land, said God, shall be a land of thine inheritance,
and the Gentiles shall be blessed upon the land.
2 Nephi 10:11
And this land shall be a land of liberty unto the Gentiles,
and there shall be no kings upon the land,
who shall raise up unto the Gentiles.
2 Nephi 10:12
And I will fortify this land against all other nations.
2 Nephi 10:13
And he that fighteth against Zion shall perish, saith God.
2 Nephi 10:14
For he that raiseth up a king against me shall perish,
for I, the Lord, the king of heaven, will be their king,
and I will be a light unto them forever, that hear my words.
2 Nephi 10:15
Wherefore, for this cause, that my covenants may be fulfilled
which I have made unto the children of men,
that I will do unto them while they are in the flesh,
I must needs destroy the secret works of darkness,
and of murders, and of abominations.
2 Nephi 10:16
Wherefore, he that fighteth against Zion,
both Jew and Gentile, both bond and free, both male and female, shall perish;
for they are they who are the whore of all the earth;
for they who are not for me are against me, saith our God.
2 Nephi 10:17
For I will fulfil my promises which I have made unto the children of men,
that I will do unto them while they are in the flesh —
2 Nephi 10:18
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, thus saith our God:
I will afflict thy seed by the hand of the Gentiles;
nevertheless, I will soften the hearts of the Gentiles,
that they shall be like unto a father to them;
wherefore, the Gentiles shall be blessed and numbered among the house of Israel.
2 Nephi 10:19
Wherefore, I will consecrate this land unto thy seed,
and them who shall be numbered among thy seed,
forever, for the land of their inheritance;
for it is a choice land, saith God unto me,
above all other lands,
wherefore I will have all men that dwell thereon
that they shall worship me, saith God.
