And now it came to pass

in bringing them out of the land of Jerusalem.

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 1:9

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.

Behold, thou art the servant of Laban;

nevertheless, thou hast been brought out of the land of Jerusalem,

and I know that thou art a true friend unto my son, Nephi, forever.
