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 25:2

For I, Nephi, have not taught them many things concerning the manner of the Jews;

for their works were works of darkness,

and their doings were doings of abominations.

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 25:10

which should come upon them, immediately after my father left Jerusalem;

nevertheless, they hardened their hearts;

and according to my prophecy they have been destroyed,

save it be those which are carried away captive into Babylon.

2 Nephi 25:13

Behold, they will crucify him;

and after he is laid in a sepulchre for the space of three days

he shall rise from the dead, with healing in his wings;

and all those who shall believe on his name shall be saved in the kingdom of God.

Wherefore, my soul delighteth to prophesy concerning him,

for I have seen his day, and my heart doth magnify his holy name.

2 Nephi 25:27

Wherefore, we speak concerning the law

that our children may know the deadness of the law;

and they, by knowing the deadness of the law,

may look forward unto that life which is in Christ,

and know for what end the law was given.

And after the law is fulfilled in Christ,

that they need not harden their hearts against him

when the law ought to be done away.

2 Nephi 26:12

And as I spake concerning the convincing of the Jews,

that Jesus is the very Christ,

it must needs be that the Gentiles be convinced also

that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God;

But behold, I prophesy unto you concerning the last days;

concerning the days when the Lord God shall bring these things forth

unto the children of men.

2 Nephi 26:16

For those who shall be destroyed shall speak unto them out of the ground,

and their speech shall be low out of the dust,

and their voice shall be as one that hath a familiar spirit;

for the Lord God will give unto him power,

that he may whisper concerning them,

even as it were out of the ground;

and their speech shall whisper out of the dust.

2 Nephi 27:33

Therefore, thus saith the Lord, who redeemed Abraham,

concerning the house of Jacob:

Jacob shall not now be ashamed,

neither shall his face now wax pale.
