2 Behold, my beloved brethren, I, Jacob, having been called of God, and ordained after the manner of his holy order,

3 And having been consecrated by my brother, Nephi, unto whom ye look as a king or a protector, and on whom ye depend for safety,

4 Behold, ye know that I have spoken unto you exceeding many things;

5 Nevertheless, I speak unto you again; for I am desirous for the welfare of your souls.

6 Yea, mine anxiety is great for you; and ye yourselves know that it ever has been.

7 For I have exhorted you with all diligence; and I have taught you the words of my father;

8 And I have spoken unto you concerning all things which are written from the creation of the world.

9 And now, behold, I would speak unto you concerning things which are, and which are to come;

10 Wherefore, I will read you the words of Isaiah.

11 And they are the words which my brother has desired that I should speak unto you.

12 And I speak them unto you for your sakes, that ye may learn and glorify the name of your God.
