2 Nephi 2:1



2 Nephi 1:17

My heart hath been weighed down with sorrow from time to time,

for I have feared, lest for the hardness of your hearts

the Lord your God should come out

in the fulness of his wrath upon you,

that ye be cut off and destroyed forever;



2 Nephi 1:21

And now that my soul might have joy in you,

and that my heart might leave this world with gladness because of you,

that I might not be brought down with grief and sorrow to the grave,

arise from the dust, my sons, and be men,

and be determined in one mind and in one heart, united in all things,

that ye may not come down into captivity;



2 Nephi 1:24

Rebel no more against your brother,

whose views have been glorious,

and who hath kept the commandments from the time that we left Jerusalem;

and who hath been an instrument in the hands of God,

in bringing us forth into the land of promise;

for were it not for him, we must have perished with hunger in the wilderness;

nevertheless, ye sought to take away his life;

yea, and he hath suffered much sorrow because of you.



2 Nephi 2:1

And now, Jacob, I speak unto you:

Thou art my firstborn in the days of my tribulation in the wilderness.

And behold, in thy childhood thou hast suffered afflictions and much sorrow,

because of the rudeness of thy brethren.
