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.

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.

And behold it shall come to pass that

after the Messiah hath risen from the dead,

and hath manifested himself unto his people,

unto as many as will believe on his name,

behold, Jerusalem shall be destroyed again;

for wo unto them that fight against God and the people of his church.

For according to the words of the prophets,

his name shall be Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

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



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.

and in the book shall be a revelation from God,

from the beginning of the world to the ending thereof.

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 27:12

Wherefore, at that day when the book shall be delivered

unto the man of whom I have spoken,

the book shall be hid from the eyes of the world,

that the eyes of none shall behold it

save it be that three witnesses shall behold it, by the power of God,

besides him to whom the book shall be delivered;

and they shall testify to the truth of the book and the things therein.



2 Nephi 27:13

And there is none other which shall view it,

save it be a few according to the will of God,

to bear testimony of his word unto the children of men;

for the Lord God hath said

that the words of the faithful should speak as if it were from the dead.



2 Nephi 27:27

And wo unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord!

And their works are in the dark;

and they say:

Who seeth us, and who knoweth us?

And they also say:

Surely, your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay.

But behold, I will show unto them, saith the Lord of Hosts,

that I know all their works.

For shall the work say of him that made it,

he made me not?

Or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it,

he had no understanding?
