1 Nephi 10:3

That after they should be destroyed,

even that great city Jerusalem,

and many be carried away captive into Babylon,

according to the own due time of the Lord, they should return again,

yea, even be brought back out of captivity;

and after they should be brought back out of captivity

they should possess again the land of their inheritance.

1 Nephi 13:30

Nevertheless, thou beholdest that the Gentiles

who have gone forth out of captivity,

and have been lifted up by the power of God

above all other nations, upon the face of the land

which is choice above all other lands,

which is the land that the Lord God hath covenanted with thy father

that his seed should have for the land of their inheritance;

wherefore, thou seest that the Lord God will not suffer

that the Gentiles will utterly destroy the mixture of thy seed,

which are among thy brethren.

1 Nephi 14:2

And harden not their hearts against the Lamb of God,

they shall be numbered among the seed of thy father;

yea, they shall be numbered among the house of Israel;

and they shall be a blessed people upon the promised land forever;

they shall be no more brought down into captivity;

and the house of Israel shall no more be confounded.

1 Nephi 14:7

For the time cometh, saith the Lamb of God,

that I will work a great and a marvelous work among the children of men;

a work which shall be everlasting,

either on the one hand or on the other —

either to the convincing of them unto peace and life eternal,

or unto the deliverance of them to the hardness of their hearts

and the blindness of their minds

unto their being brought down into captivity,

and also into destruction, both temporally and spiritually,

according to the captivity of the devil, of which I have spoken.
