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 1:8

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.

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 2:16

Wherefore, the Lord God gave unto man that he should act for himself.

Wherefore, man could not act for himself

save it should be that he was enticed by the one or the other.

2 Nephi 2:30

I have spoken these few words unto you all, my sons,

in the last days of my probation;

and I have chosen the good part, according to the words of the prophet.

And I have none other object save it be the everlasting welfare of your souls.

Amen.
