2 Nephi 27:11

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 25:10

Wherefore, it hath been told them concerning the destruction

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 25:11

And now this I speak because of the spirit which is in me.

And notwithstanding they have been carried away

they shall return again, and possess the land of Jerusalem;

wherefore, they shall be restored again to the land of their inheritance.

2 Nephi 25:16

And after they have been scattered,

and the Lord God hath scourged them

by other nations for the space of many generations,

yea, even down from generation to generation

until they shall be persuaded to believe in Christ, the Son of God,

and the atonement, which is infinite for all mankind —

and when that day shall come that they shall believe in Christ,

and worship the Father in his name, with pure hearts and clean hands,

and look not forward any more for another Messiah,

then, at that time, the day will come

that it must needs be expedient that they should believe these things.

2 Nephi 26:15

After my seed and the seed of my brethren shall have dwindled in unbelief,

and shall have been smitten by the Gentiles;

yea, after the Lord God shall have camped against them round about,

and shall have laid siege against them with a mount, and raised forts against them;

and after they shall have been brought down low in the dust,

even that they are not,

yet the words of the righteous shall be written,

and the prayers of the faithful shall be heard,

and all those who have dwindled in unbelief shall not be forgotten.

2 Nephi 26:18

Wherefore, as those who have been destroyed have been destroyed speedily;

and the multitude of their terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away —

yea, thus saith the Lord God:

It shall be at an instant, suddenly —

2 Nephi 27:11

And the day cometh that the words of the book which were sealed

shall be read upon the house tops;

and they shall be read by the power of Christ;

and all things shall be revealed unto the children of men

which ever have been among the children of men,

and which ever will be even unto the end of the earth.
