2 Nephi 2:24



2 Nephi 1:10

but behold, when the time cometh

that they shall dwindle in unbelief,

after they have received so great blessings from the hand of the Lord —

having a knowledge of the creation of the earth, and all men,

knowing the great and marvelous works of the Lord

from the creation of the world;

having power given them to do all things by faith;

having all the commandments from the beginning,

and having been brought by his infinite goodness

into this precious land of promise —

behold, I say, if the day shall come

that they will reject the Holy One of Israel,

the true Messiah, their Redeemer and their God,

behold, the judgments of him that is just shall rest upon them.



2 Nephi 1:15

but behold, the Lord hath redeemed my soul from hell;

I have beheld his glory,

and I am encircled about eternally in the arms of his love.



2 Nephi 1:19

O my sons, that these things might not come upon you,

but that ye might be a choice and a favored people of the Lord.

but behold, his will be done;

for his ways are righteousness forever.



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 1:27

And it must needs be that the power of God must be with him,

even unto his commanding you that ye must obey.

but behold, it was not he,

but it was the Spirit of the Lord which was in him,

which opened his mouth to utterance that he could not shut it.



2 Nephi 2:24

but behold, all things have been done

in the wisdom of him who knoweth all things.
