2 Nephi 25:3

Wherefore, I write unto my people,

unto all those that shall receive hereafter these things which I write,

that they may know the judgments of God,

that they come upon all nations, according to the word which he hath spoken.

2 Nephi 25:4

Wherefore, hearken, O my people, which are of the house of Israel,

and give ear unto my words;

for because the words of Isaiah are not plain unto you,

nevertheless they are plain unto all those that are filled with the spirit of prophecy.

But I give unto you a prophecy, according to the spirit which is in me;

wherefore I shall prophesy according to the plainness

which hath been with me from the time that I came out from Jerusalem with my father;

for behold, my soul delighteth in plainness unto my people, that they may learn.

2 Nephi 25:6

But behold, I, Nephi, have not taught my children after the manner of the Jews;

but behold, I, of myself, have dwelt at Jerusalem,

wherefore I know concerning the regions round about;

and I have made mention unto my children concerning the judgments of God,

which hath come to pass among the Jews,

unto my children,

according to all that which Isaiah hath spoken,

and I do not write them.

2 Nephi 25:21

Wherefore, for this cause hath the Lord God promised unto me

that these things which I write shall be kept and preserved,

and handed down unto my seed, from generation to generation,

that the promise may be fulfilled unto Joseph,

that his seed should never perish as long as the earth should stand.

2 Nephi 26:3

And after the Messiah shall come

there shall be signs given unto my people of his birth,

and also of his death and resurrection;

and great and terrible shall that day be unto the wicked,

for they shall perish;

and they perish because they cast out the prophets, and the saints,

and stone them, and slay them;

wherefore the cry of the blood of the saints

shall ascend up to God from the ground against them.

2 Nephi 26:7

O the pain, and the anguish of my soul for the loss of the slain of my people!

For I, Nephi, have seen it,

and it well nigh consumeth me before the presence of the Lord;

but I must cry unto my God:

Thy ways are just.

2 Nephi 26:10

And when these things have passed away

a speedy destruction cometh unto my people;

for, notwithstanding the pains of my soul, I have seen it;

wherefore, I know that it shall come to pass;

and they sell themselves for naught;

for, for the reward of their pride and their foolishness they shall reap destruction;

for because they yield unto the devil

and choose works of darkness rather than light,

therefore they must go down to hell.
