2 Nephi 10:2

For behold, the promises which we have obtained

are promises unto us according to the flesh;

wherefore, as it has been shown unto me

that many of our children shall perish in the flesh because of unbelief,

nevertheless, God will be merciful unto many;

and our children shall be restored,

that they may come to that which will give them

the true knowledge of their Redeemer.

2 Nephi 10:9

Yea, the kings of the Gentiles shall be nursing fathers unto them,

and their queens shall become nursing mothers;

wherefore, the promises of the Lord are great unto the Gentiles,

for he hath spoken it, and who can dispute?

2 Nephi 10:21

But great are the promises of the Lord unto them

who are upon the isles of the sea;

wherefore as it says isles, there must needs be more than this,

and they are inhabited also by our brethren.
