2 Nephi 25:1

Now I, Nephi, do speak somewhat

concerning the words which I have written,

which have been spoken by the mouth of Isaiah.

For behold, Isaiah spake many things which were hard

for many of my people to understand;

for they know not concerning the manner of prophesying among the Jews.

2 Nephi 25:22

Wherefore, these things shall go from generation to generation

as long as the earth shall stand;

and they shall go according to the will and pleasure of God;

and the nations who shall possess them shall be judged of them

according to the words which are written.

2 Nephi 25:28

And now behold, my people, ye are a stiffnecked people;

wherefore, I have spoken plainly unto you,

that ye cannot misunderstand.

And the words which I have spoken shall stand as a testimony against you;

for they are sufficient to teach any man the right way;

for the right way is to believe in Christ and deny him not;

for by denying him ye also deny the prophets and the law.

2 Nephi 26:1

And after Christ shall have risen from the dead

he shall show himself unto you, my children, and my beloved brethren;

and the words which he shall speak unto you shall be the law which ye shall do.

2 Nephi 27:10

But the words which are sealed he shall not deliver,

neither shall he deliver the book.

For the book shall be sealed by the power of God,

and the revelation which was sealed shall be kept in the book

until the own due time of the Lord,

that they may come forth;

for behold, they reveal all things

from the foundation of the world unto the end thereof.

2 Nephi 27:20

Then shall the Lord God say unto him:

The learned shall not read them,

for they have rejected them,

and I am able to do mine own work;

wherefore thou shalt read the words which I shall give unto thee.

2 Nephi 27:22

Wherefore, when thou hast read the words which I have commanded thee,

and obtained the witnesses which I have promised unto thee,

then shalt thou seal up the book again, and hide it up unto me,

that I may preserve the words which thou hast not read,

until I shall see fit in mine own wisdom

to reveal all things unto the children of men.
