2 Nephi 1:17

My heart hath been weighed down with sorrow from time to time,

for I have feared, lest for the hardness of your hearts

the Lord your God should come out

in the fulness of his wrath upon you,

that ye be cut off and destroyed forever;

2 Nephi 1:24

Rebel no more against your brother,

whose views have been glorious,

and who hath kept the commandments from the time that we left Jerusalem;

and who hath been an instrument in the hands of God,

in bringing us forth into the land of promise;

for were it not for him, we must have perished with hunger in the wilderness;

nevertheless, ye sought to take away his life;

yea, and he hath suffered much sorrow because of you.

2 Nephi 1:25

And I exceedingly fear and tremble because of you,

lest he shall suffer again;

for behold, ye have accused him

that he sought power and authority over you;

but I know that he hath not sought for power nor authority over you,

but he hath sought the glory of God, and your own eternal welfare.

2 Nephi 1:26

And ye have murmured because he hath been plain unto you.

Ye say that he hath used sharpness;

ye say that he hath been angry with you;

but behold, his sharpness was the sharpness of the power

of the word of God, which was in him;

and that which ye call anger was the truth,

according to that which is in God,

which he could not restrain,

manifesting boldly concerning your iniquities.

2 Nephi 2:14

And now, my sons,

I speak unto you these things for your profit and learning;

for there is a God, and he hath created all things,

both the heavens and the earth, and all things that in them are,

both things to act and things to be acted upon.

2 Nephi 2:30

I have spoken these few words unto you all, my sons,

in the last days of my probation;

and I have chosen the good part, according to the words of the prophet.

And I have none other object save it be the everlasting welfare of your souls.

Amen.
