1 Nephi 16:2

And it came to pass that I said unto them

that I knew that I had spoken hard things against the wicked,

according to the truth;

and the righteous have I justified,

and testified that they should be lifted up at the last day;

wherefore, the guilty taketh the truth to be hard,

for it cutteth them to the very center.

1 Nephi 17:43

And now, after all these things,

the time has come that they have become wicked,

yea, nearly unto ripeness;

and I know not but they are at this day about to be destroyed;

for I know that the day must surely come

that they must be destroyed, save a few only,

who shall be led away into captivity.

1 Nephi 18:23

And it came to pass that after we had sailed for the space of many days

we did arrive at the promised land;

and we went forth upon the land, and did pitch our tents;

and we did call it the promised land.

1 Nephi 19:2

And I knew not at the time when I made them

that I should be commanded of the Lord to make these plates;

wherefore, the record of my father, and the genealogy of his fathers,

and the more part of all our proceedings in the wilderness

are engraven upon those first plates of which I have spoken;

wherefore, the things which transpired before I made these plates

are, of a truth, more particularly made mention upon the first plates.

1 Nephi 19:7

For the things which some men esteem to be of great worth,

both to the body and soul,

others set at naught and trample under their feet.

Yea, even the very God of Israel do men trample under their feet;

I say, trample under their feet

but I would speak in other words —

they set him at naught, and hearken not to the voice of his counsels.

1 Nephi 19:11

For thus spake the prophet:

The Lord God surely shall visit all the house of Israel at that day,

some with his voice, because of their righteousness,

unto their great joy and salvation,

and others with the thunderings and the lightnings of his power,

by tempest, by fire, and by smoke, and vapor of darkness,

and by the opening of the earth,

and by mountains which shall be carried up.

1 Nephi 19:13

And as for those who are at Jerusalem, saith the prophet,

they shall be scourged by all people,

because they crucify the God of Israel, and turn their hearts aside,

rejecting signs and wonders, and the power and glory of the God of Israel.

1 Nephi 19:20

For behold, I have workings in the spirit, which doth weary me

even that all my joints are weak,

for those who are at Jerusalem;

for had not the Lord been merciful,

to show unto me concerning them,

even as he had prophets of old,

I should have perished also.
