1 Nephi 19:10

And the God of our fathers, who were led out of Egypt, out of bondage,

and also were preserved in the wilderness by him,

yea, the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, yieldeth himself,

according to the words of the angel,

as a man, into the hands of wicked men,

to be lifted up, according to the words of Zenock,

and to be crucified, according to the words of Neum,

and to be buried in a sepulchre, according to the words of Zenos,

which he spake concerning the three days of darkness,

which should be a sign given of his death unto those

who should inhabit the isles of the sea,

more especially given unto those who are of the house of Israel.



1 Nephi 19:12

And all these things must surely come, saith the prophet Zenos.

And the rocks of the earth must rend;

and because of the groanings of the earth,

many of the kings of the isles of the sea

shall be wrought upon by the Spirit of God, to exclaim:

The God of nature suffers.



1 Nephi 19:16

Yea, then will he remember the isles of the sea;

yea, and all the people who are of the house of Israel,

will I gather in, saith the Lord,

according to the words of the prophet Zenos,

from the four quarters of the earth.
