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 25:5

Yea, and my soul delighteth in the words of Isaiah,

for I came out from Jerusalem,

and mine eyes hath beheld the things of the Jews,

and I know that the Jews do understand the things of the prophets,

and there is none other people

that understand the things which were spoken unto the Jews

like unto them,

save it be that they are taught after the manner of the things of the Jews.

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.

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;

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

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 25:14

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,

the Messiah cometh in six hundred years

from the time that my father left Jerusalem;

and according to the words of the prophets,

and also the word of the angel of God,

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