2 Nephi 1:8

And behold, it is wisdom that this land should be kept

as yet from the knowledge of other nations;

for behold, many nations would overrun the land,

that there would be no place for an inheritance.

2 Nephi 1:9

Wherefore, I, Lehi, have obtained a promise, that

inasmuch as those whom the Lord God shall bring out of the land of Jerusalem

shall keep his commandments,

they shall prosper upon the face of this land;

and they shall be kept from all other nations,

that they may possess this land unto themselves.

And if it so be that they shall keep his commandments

they shall be blessed upon the face of this land,

and there shall be none to molest them,

nor to take away the land of their inheritance;

and they shall dwell safely forever.

2 Nephi 1:12

Yea, as one generation passeth to another

there shall be bloodsheds, and great visitations among them;

wherefore, my sons, I would that ye would remember;

yea, I would that ye would hearken unto my words.

Inasmuch as ye shall keep my commandments

ye shall prosper in the land;

but inasmuch as ye will not keep my commandments

ye shall be cut off from my presence.

2 Nephi 2:4

And thou hast beheld in thy youth his glory;

wherefore, thou art blessed

even as they unto whom he shall minister in the flesh;

for the Spirit is the same, yesterday, today, and forever.

And the way is prepared from the fall of man,

and salvation is free.

Wherefore, he is the firstfruits unto God,

inasmuch as he shall make intercession for all the children of men;

and they that believe in him shall be saved.

2 Nephi 2:11

For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things.

If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness,

righteousness could not be brought to pass,

neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad.

Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one;

wherefore, if it should be one body

it must needs remain as dead,

having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption,

happiness nor misery, neither sense nor insensibility.

2 Nephi 2:18

And because he had fallen from heaven,

and had become miserable forever,

he sought also the misery of all mankind.

Wherefore, he said unto Eve,

yea, even that old serpent, who is the devil,

who is the father of all lies,

wherefore he said:

Partake of the forbidden fruit, and ye shall not die,

but ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.
