2 Nephi 1:8, 9, 11

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 1:11

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.
