2 Nephi 1:7

Wherefore, this land is consecrated unto him whom he shall bring.

And if it so be that they shall serve him

according to the commandments which he hath given,

it shall be a land of liberty unto them;

wherefore, they shall never be brought down into captivity;

if so, it shall be because of iniquity;

for if iniquity shall abound

cursed shall be the land for their sakes,

but unto the righteous it shall be blessed forever.

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 1:11

Yea, he will bring other nations unto them,

and he will give unto them power,

and he will take away from them the lands of their possessions,

and he will cause them to be scattered and smitten.

2 Nephi 2:3

Wherefore, thy soul shall be blessed,

and thou shalt dwell safely with thy brother, Nephi;

and thy days shall be spent in the service of thy God.

Wherefore, I know that thou art redeemed,

because of the righteousness of thy Redeemer;

for thou hast beheld that in the fulness of time

he cometh to bring salvation unto men.

2 Nephi 2:8

Wherefore, how great the importance

to make these things known unto the inhabitants of the earth,

that they may know that there is no flesh

that can dwell in the presence of God,

save it be through the merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah,

who layeth down his life according to the flesh,

and taketh it again by the power of the Spirit,

that he may bring to pass the resurrection of the dead,

being the first that should rise.

2 Nephi 2:15

And to bring about his eternal purposes in the end of man,

after he had created our first parents,

and the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air,

and in fine, all things which are created,

it must needs be that there was an opposition;

even the forbidden fruit in opposition to the tree of life;

the one being sweet and the other bitter.

2 Nephi 2:29

And not choose eternal death, according to the will of the flesh

and the evil which is therein,

which giveth the spirit of the devil power to captivate,

to bring you down to hell,

that he may reign over you in his own kingdom.
