2 Nephi 1:1

And now it came to pass

that after I, Nephi, had made an end of teaching my brethren,

our father, Lehi, also spake many things unto them,

and rehearsed unto them, how great things the Lord had done for them

in bringing them out of the land of Jerusalem.

2 Nephi 1:3

And he also spake unto them concerning the land of promise,

which they had obtained —

how merciful the Lord had been in warning us

that we should flee out of the land of Jerusalem.

2 Nephi 1:4

For, behold, said he, I have seen a vision,

in which I know that Jerusalem is destroyed;

and had we remained in Jerusalem we should also have perished.

2 Nephi 1:5

But, said he, notwithstanding our afflictions,

we have obtained a land of promise,

a land which is choice above all other lands;

a land which the Lord God hath covenanted with me

should be a land for the inheritance of my seed.

Yea, the Lord hath covenanted this land unto me, and to my children forever,

and also all those who should be led out of other countries

by the hand of the Lord.

2 Nephi 1:22

That ye may not be cursed with a sore cursing;

and also, that ye may not incur the displeasure of a just God upon you,

unto the destruction, yea, the eternal destruction of both soul and body.

2 Nephi 1:28

And now my son, Laman, and also Lemuel and Sam,

and also my sons who are the sons of Ishmael,

behold, if ye will hearken unto the voice of Nephi

ye shall not perish.

And if ye will hearken unto him

I leave unto you a blessing, yea, even my first blessing.

2 Nephi 2:5

And men are instructed sufficiently that they know good from evil.

And the law is given unto men.

And by the law no flesh is justified;

or, by the law men are cut off.

Yea, by the temporal law they were cut off;

and also, by the spiritual law they perish from that which is good,

and become miserable forever.

2 Nephi 2:12

Wherefore, it must needs have been created for a thing of naught;

wherefore there would have been no purpose in the end of its creation.

Wherefore, this thing must needs destroy

the wisdom of God and his eternal purposes,

and also the power, and the mercy, and the justice of God.

2 Nephi 2:13

And if ye shall say there is no law,

ye shall also say there is no sin.

If ye shall say there is no sin,

ye shall also say there is no righteousness.

And if there be no righteousness

there be no happiness.

And if there be no righteousness nor happiness

there be no punishment nor misery.

And if these things are not

there is no God.

And if there is no God

we are not, neither the earth;

for there could have been no creation of things,

neither to act nor to be acted upon;

wherefore, all things must have vanished away.

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.
