Title Page 1:4 Written and sealed up and hid up unto the Lord, that they might not be destroyed, To come forth by the gift and power of God, unto the interpretation thereof; Sealed by the hand of Moroni and hid up unto the Lord, To come forth in due time by the way of Gentile, the interpretation thereof by the gift of God -

Title Page 1:8 And now if there be fault, it be the mistake of men; Wherefore, condemn not the things of God, that ye may be found spotless at the judgment seat of Christ. Moroni

1 Nephi 1:2 And I know that the record which I make to be true, And I make it with mine own hand, And I make it according to my knowledge.

1 Nephi 1:3 For it came to pass in the commencement of the first year of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, my father Lehi having dwelt at Jerusalem in all his days, And in that same year there came many prophets prophesying unto the people that they must repent or that great City Jerusalem must be destroyed;

1 Nephi 1:12 Yea, and many things did my father read concerning Jerusalem - that it should be destroyed, And the inhabitants thereof - many should perish by the sword, And many should be carried away captive into Babylon.

1 Nephi 1:36 And when my father saw that the waters of the river emptied into the fountain of the Red Sea, he spake unto Laman, saying: "O that thou mightest be like unto this river, continually running into the fountain of all righteousness!"

1 Nephi 1:37 And he also spake unto Lemuel, saying: "O that thou mightest be like unto this valley, firm and steadfast and immovable in keeping the commandments of the Lord!"

1 Nephi 1:42 Neither did they believe that Jerusalem, that great city, could be destroyed according to the words of the prophets;

1 Nephi 1:54 And inasmuch as ye shall keep My commandments, ye shall prosper and shall be led to a Land of Promise, Yea, even a land which I have prepared for you, a land which is choice above all other lands;

1 Nephi 1:55 And inasmuch as thy brethren shall rebel against thee, they shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord;

1 Nephi 1:56 And inasmuch as thou shalt keep My commandments, thou shalt be made a ruler and a teacher over thy brethren;

1 Nephi 1:58 And if it so be that they rebel against Me, they shall be a scourge unto thy seed, to stir them up in the ways of remembrance."

1 Nephi 1:64 Therefore go, my son, and thou shalt be favored of the Lord because thou hast not murmured."

1 Nephi 1:74 And we began to be exceeding sorrowful; And my brethren were about to return unto my father in the wilderness,

1 Nephi 1:76 Wherefore, let us be faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord.

1 Nephi 1:78 And all this he hath done because of the commandment of the Lord, For he knowing that Jerusalem must be destroyed because of the wickedness of the people -

1 Nephi 1:81 Wherefore, it must needs be that he flee out of the land.

1 Nephi 1:84 And it came to pass that after this manner of language did I persuade my brethren, that they might be faithful in keeping the commandments of God.

1 Nephi 1:94 Know ye not that the Lord hath chosen him to be a ruler over you, and this because of your iniquities?

1 Nephi 1:99 And it came to pass that I spake unto my brethren, saying: "Let us go up again unto Jerusalem and let us be faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord, For behold, He is mightier than all the earth; Then why not mightier than Laban and his fifty, yea, or even than his tens of thousands?

1 Nephi 1:100 "Therefore, let us go up; Let us be strong like unto Moses, For he truly spake unto the waters of the Red Sea and they divided hither and thither and our fathers came through out of captivity on dry ground, And the armies of Pharaoh did follow and were drowned in the waters of the Red Sea.

1 Nephi 1:124 And I commanded him in the voice of Laban that he should go with me into the treasury, And he supposing me to be his master Laban, for he beheld the garments and also the sword girded about my loins,

1 Nephi 1:137 And I spake unto him even with an oath that he need not fear, That he should be a free man like unto us if he would go down in the wilderness with us.

1 Nephi 1:138 And I also spake unto him, saying: "Surely the Lord hath commanded us to do this thing; And shall we not be diligent in keeping the commandment of the Lord?

1 Nephi 1:170 Wherefore, he said that these plates of brass should never perish, neither should they be dimmed anymore by time;

1 Nephi 2:3 And it mattereth not to me that I am particular to give a full account of all the things of my father, for they cannot be written upon these plates, for I desire the room that I may write of the things of God,

1 Nephi 2:4 For the fullness of mine intent is that I may persuade men to come unto the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob and be saved;

1 Nephi 2:18 Yea, and how is it that ye have forgotten that the Lord is able to do all things according to His will for the children of men, if it so be that they exercise faith in Him? "Wherefore, let us be faithful in Him;

1 Nephi 2:19 And if it so be that we are faithful in Him, we shall obtain the Land of Promise; And ye shall know at some future period that the word of the Lord shall be fulfilled concerning the destruction of Jerusalem,

1 Nephi 2:20 For all things which the Lord hath spoken concerning the destruction of Jerusalem must be fulfilled.

1 Nephi 2:27 And it came to pass that they did lay their hands upon me, for behold, they were exceeding wroth; And they did bind me with cords, for they sought to take away my life that they might leave me in the wilderness to be devoured by wild beasts.

1 Nephi 2:42 And behold, because of the thing which I have seen, I have reason to rejoice in the Lord because of Nephi, and also of Sam, For I have reason to suppose that they, and also many of their seed, will be saved.

1 Nephi 2:53 Wherefore, I began to be desirous that my family should partake of it also, for I knew that it was desirous above all other fruit.

1 Nephi 2:78 But to be short in writing, behold, he saw other multitudes pressing forward, And they came and caught hold of the end of the rod of iron, And they did press their way forward, continually holding fast to the rod of iron until they came forth and fell down and partook of the fruit of the tree;

1 Nephi 2:87 Yea, he feared lest they should be cast off from the presence of the Lord;

1 Nephi 2:88 And he did exhort them then with all the feeling of a tender parent that they would hearken to his words, in that perhaps the Lord would be merciful to them and not cast them off.

1 Nephi 2:92 And all these things did my father see and hear and speak as he dwelt in a tent in the Valley of Lemuel, And also a great many more things which cannot be written upon these plates.

1 Nephi 2:96 Nevertheless, I have received a commandment of the Lord that I should make these plates for the special purpose that there should be an account engraven of the ministry of my people,

1 Nephi 2:97 And upon the other plates should be engraven an account of the reigns of the kings and the wars and contentions of my people;

1 Nephi 3:2 For behold, it came to pass that after my father had made an end of speaking the words of his dream, and also of exhorting them to all diligence, He spake unto them concerning the Jews - How that after they were destroyed, yea, even that great City Jerusalem, and that many were carried away captive into Babylon, That according to the own due time of the Lord they should return again, yea, even be brought back out of captivity;

1 Nephi 3:6 Wherefore, all mankind was in a lost and in a fallen state and ever would be, save they should rely on this Redeemer.

1 Nephi 3:13 And it came to pass that after my father had spoken these words, he spake unto my brethren concerning the gospel which should be preached among the Jews,

1 Nephi 3:16 Yea, even my father spake much concerning the Gentiles, and also concerning the house of Israel - That they should be compared like unto an olive tree whose branches should be broken off and should be scattered upon all the face of the earth;

1 Nephi 3:17 Wherefore, he said it must needs be that we should be led with one accord into the Land of Promise, unto the fulfilling of the word of the Lord that we should be scattered upon all the face of the earth;

1 Nephi 3:18 And after that the house of Israel should be scattered, they should be gathered together again;

1 Nephi 3:19 Or, in fine, that after the Gentiles had received the fullness of the gospel, the natural branches of the olive tree - or the remnants of the house of Israel - should be grafted in, or come to the knowledge of the true Messiah, their Lord and their Redeemer.

1 Nephi 3:28 And the way is prepared for all men from the foundation of the world, if it so be that they repent and come unto Him.

1 Nephi 3:30 And the mysteries of God shall be unfolded to them by the power of the Holy Ghost, as well in this time as in times of old,

1 Nephi 3:33 Therefore, remember O man, for all thy doings thou shalt be brought into judgment;

1 Nephi 3:35 And no unclean thing can dwell with God, wherefore, ye must be cast off forever;

1 Nephi 3:45 And behold, this thing shall be given unto thee for a sign: That after thou hast beheld the tree which bore the fruit of which thy father tasted, thou shalt also behold a Man descending out of heaven, And Him shall ye witness; And after that ye shall have witnessed Him, ye shall bear record that it is the Son of God."

1 Nephi 3:95 And the angel of the Lord spake unto me, saying: "Thus shall be the destruction of all nations, kindreds, tongues and people that shall fight against the twelve apostles of the Lamb."

1 Nephi 3:116 Wherefore, the twelve ministers of thy seed shall be judged of them, for ye are of the house of Israel; And these twelve ministers which thou beholdest shall judge thy seed;

1 Nephi 3:180 'Wherefore, ' saith the Lamb of God, 'I will be merciful unto the Gentiles unto the visiting of the remnant of the house of Israel in great judgment.'"

1 Nephi 3:183 And after that the Gentiles do stumble exceedingly because of the most plain and most precious parts of the gospel of the Lamb which hath been kept back by that abominable church which is the mother of harlots, ' saith the Lamb, 'Wherefore, I will be merciful unto the Gentiles in that day, ' saith the Lamb, 'Insomuch that I will bring forth unto them in Mine own power much of My gospel, which shall be plain and most precious, ' saith the Lamb.

1 Nephi 3:184 'For behold, ' saith the Lamb, 'I will manifest Myself unto thy seed, that they shall write many things which I shall minister unto them, which shall be plain and precious;

1 Nephi 3:185 And after that thy seed shall be destroyed and dwindle in unbelief, and also the seed of thy brethren, Behold, these things shall be hid up to come forth unto the Gentiles by the gift and power of the Lamb;

1 Nephi 3:186 And in them shall be written My gospel, ' saith the Lamb, 'and My rock and My salvation;

1 Nephi 3:188 And if they endure unto the end, they shall be lifted up at the last day and shall be saved in the everlasting kingdom of the Lamb;

1 Nephi 3:189 Yea, whoso shall publish peace, that shall publish tidings of great joy, how beautiful upon the mountains shall they be! '"

1 Nephi 3:193 And shall make known to all kindreds, tongues and people that the Lamb of God is the Eternal Father and the Savior of the world, And that all men must come unto Him or they cannot be saved;

1 Nephi 3:194 And they must come according to the words which shall be established by the mouth of the Lamb;

1 Nephi 3:195 And the words of the Lamb shall be made known in the records of thy seed, as well as in the records of the twelve apostles of the Lamb;

1 Nephi 3:196 Wherefore, they both shall be established in one;

1 Nephi 3:200 And the last shall be first, and the first shall be last.

1 Nephi 3:201 "And it shall come to pass that if the Gentiles shall hearken unto the Lamb of God in that day that He shall manifest Himself unto them in word and also in power, in very deed, Unto the taking away of their stumbling blocks, if it so be that they harden not their hearts against the Lamb, And if it so be that they harden not their hearts against the Lamb of God, they shall be numbered among the seed of thy father,

1 Nephi 3:202 Yea, they shall be numbered among the house of Israel;

1 Nephi 3:203 And they shall be a blessed people upon the Promised Land forever;

1 Nephi 3:204 They shall be no more brought down into captivity,

1 Nephi 3:205 And the house of Israel shall no more be confounded;

1 Nephi 3:207 Yea, that great pit which hath been digged for the destruction of men shall be filled by those who digged it unto their utter destruction, " saith the Lamb of God -

1 Nephi 3:208 "Not the destruction of the soul, save it be the casting of it into that hell which hath no end -

1 Nephi 3:210 And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me, Nephi, saying: "Thou hast beheld that if the Gentiles repent, it shall be well with them;

1 Nephi 3:213 Therefore, wo be unto the Gentiles if it so be that they harden their hearts against the Lamb of God,

1 Nephi 3:215 A work which shall be everlasting, either on the one hand or on the other,

1 Nephi 3:220 And he saith unto me: "Behold, there are save it be two churches -

1 Nephi 3:233 And as there began to be wars and rumors of wars among all the nations which belonged to the mother of abominations, the angel spake unto me, saying:

1 Nephi 4:3 For he truly spake many great things unto them which were hard to be understood save a man should inquire of the Lord;

1 Nephi 4:13 "Do ye not remember the thing which the Lord hath said: ' If ye will not harden your hearts and ask Me in faith, believing that ye shall receive - with diligence in keeping My commandments - surely these things shall be made known unto you ' ?

1 Nephi 4:19 Wherefore, they shall come to the knowledge of their Redeemer and the very points of His doctrine, that they may know how to come unto Him and be saved.

1 Nephi 4:23 "Behold, I say unto you, Yea; They shall be numbered again among the house of Israel;

1 Nephi 4:24 They shall be grafted in, being a natural branch of the olive tree, into the true olive tree.

1 Nephi 4:27 And he meaneth that it shall come by way of the Gentiles, that the Lord may show His power unto the Gentiles for the very cause that He shall be rejected of the Jews, or of the house of Israel.

1 Nephi 4:28 "Wherefore, our father hath not spoken of our seed alone, but also of all the house of Israel, pointing to the covenant which should be fulfilled in the latter days,

1 Nephi 4:29 Which covenant the Lord made to our father Abraham, saying: ' In thy Seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed. '"

1 Nephi 4:33 And after that they were restored, they should no more be confounded, neither should they be scattered again.

1 Nephi 4:52 For the day should come that they must be judged of their works, Yea, even the works which were done by the temporal body in their days of probation.

1 Nephi 4:53 Wherefore, if they should die in their wickedness, they must be cast off also as to the things which are spiritual, which are pertaining unto righteousness;

1 Nephi 4:54 Wherefore, they must be brought to stand before God to be judged of their works;

1 Nephi 4:55 And if their works have been filthiness, they must needs be filthy;

1 Nephi 4:56 And if they be filthy, it must needs be that they cannot dwell in the kingdom of God,

1 Nephi 4:57 If so, the kingdom of God must be filthy also;

1 Nephi 4:59 Wherefore, there must needs be a place of filthiness prepared for that which is filthy;

1 Nephi 4:61 Wherefore, the final state of the souls of men is to dwell in the kingdom of God, or to be cast out because of that justice of which I have spoken;

1 Nephi 5:2 And it came to pass that I said unto them that I knew that I had spoken hard things against the wicked, according to the truth; And the righteous have I justified and testified that they should be lifted up at the last day; Wherefore, the guilty taketh the truth to be hard, for it cutteth them to the very center.

1 Nephi 5:26 Now it came to pass that I, Nephi, having been afflicted with my brethren because of the loss of my bow and their bows having lost their springs, it began to be exceeding difficult, Yea, insomuch that we could obtain no food.

1 Nephi 5:35 And there was also written upon them a new writing which was plain to be read, which did give us understanding concerning the ways of the Lord; And it was written and changed from time to time according to the faith and diligence which we gave unto it.

1 Nephi 5:48 And Laman saith unto Lemuel, and also unto the sons of Ishmael: "Behold, let us slay our father, and also our brother Nephi who hath taken it upon him to be our ruler and our teacher, who are his elder brethren.

1 Nephi 5:58 And thus we see that the commandments of God must be fulfilled;

1 Nephi 5:59 And if it so be that the children of men keep the commandments of God, He doth nourish them and strengthen them and provide ways and means whereby they can accomplish the thing which He hath commanded them;

1 Nephi 5:77 And I will also be your light in the wilderness;

1 Nephi 5:78 And I will prepare the way before you, if it so be that ye shall keep My commandments;

1 Nephi 5:79 Wherefore, inasmuch as ye shall keep My commandments ye shall be led toward the Promised Land, And ye shall know that it is by Me that ye are led."

1 Nephi 5:91 And now when they saw that I began to be sorrowful, they were glad in their hearts insomuch that they did rejoice over me, saying:

1 Nephi 5:105 "Now ye know that the children of Israel were in bondage; And ye know that they were laden with tasks which were grievous to be borne;

1 Nephi 5:106 Wherefore, ye know that it must needs be a good thing for them that they should be brought out of bondage.

1 Nephi 5:126 "Behold, the Lord hath created the earth, that it should be inhabited;

1 Nephi 5:131 "And He loveth them which will have Him to be their God;

1 Nephi 5:134 He sent flying fiery serpents among them; And after they were bitten, He prepared a way that they might be healed;

1 Nephi 5:139 And I know not but they are at this day about to be destroyed,

1 Nephi 5:140 For I know that the day must surely come that they must be destroyed, save a few only which shall be led away into captivity.

1 Nephi 5:149 Yea, and ye know that by His word He can cause that rough places be made smooth and smooth places shall be broken up;

1 Nephi 5:150 O then, why is it that ye can be so hard in your hearts?

1 Nephi 5:151 "Behold, my soul is rent with anguish because of you and my heart is pained; I fear lest ye shall be cast off forever;

1 Nephi 5:155 And whoso shall lay their hands upon me shall wither even as a dried weed, And he shall be as naught before the power of God, for God shall smite him."

1 Nephi 5:158 If He should command me that I should say unto this water, 'Be thou earth! '-And it shall be earth; And if I should say it, it would be done.

1 Nephi 5:167 Wherefore, worship the Lord thy God and honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long in the land which the Lord thy God shall give thee."

1 Nephi 5:185 And I, Nephi, began to fear exceedingly lest the Lord should be angry with us and smite us because of our iniquity, that we should be swallowed up in the depths of the sea;

1 Nephi 5:187 But behold, they were angry with me, saying: "We will not that our younger brother shall be a ruler over us."

1 Nephi 5:193 And they began to be frightened exceedingly lest they should be drowned in the sea,

1 Nephi 5:195 And on the fourth day which we had been driven back, the tempest began to be exceeding sore,

1 Nephi 5:196 And it came to pass that we were about to be swallowed up in the depths of the sea.

1 Nephi 5:202 Because of their grief and much sorrow and the iniquity of my brethren, they were brought near even to be carried out of this time to meet their God;

1 Nephi 5:203 Yea, their grey hairs were about to be brought down to lie low in the dust,

1 Nephi 5:204 Yea, even they were near to be cast with sorrow into a watery grave.

1 Nephi 5:208 Wherefore, when they saw that they were about to be swallowed up in the depths of the sea, they repented of the thing which they had done insomuch that they loosed me.

1 Nephi 5:220 And I knew not at that time when I made them that I should be commanded of the Lord to make these plates;

1 Nephi 5:223 And after that I made these plates by way of commandment, I, Nephi, received a commandment that the ministry and the prophecies - the more plain and precious parts of them - should be written upon these plates;

1 Nephi 5:224 And that the things which were written should be kept for the instruction of my people which should possess the land, And also for other wise purposes, which purposes are known unto the Lord.

1 Nephi 5:226 And now this have I done and commanded my people that they should do after that I was gone, And that these plates should be handed down from one generation to another, or from one prophet to another, until further commandments of the Lord.

1 Nephi 5:227 And an account of my making these plates shall be given hereafter;

1 Nephi 5:228 And then behold, I proceed according to that which I have spoken; And this I do that the more sacred things may be kept for the knowledge of my people.

1 Nephi 5:229 Nevertheless, I do not write anything upon plates save it be that I think it be sacred;

1 Nephi 5:232 For the things which some men esteem to be of great worth, both to the body and soul, others set at naught and trample under their feet;

1 Nephi 5:237 And the world, because of their iniquity, shall judge Him to be a thing of naught; Wherefore, they scourge Him, and He suffereth it; And they smite Him, and He suffereth it;

1 Nephi 5:240 Yea, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and the God of Jacob yieldeth Himself, according to the words of the angel, as a man into the hands of wicked men, To be lifted up, according to the words of Zenoch,

1 Nephi 5:241 And to be crucified, according to the words of Neum,

1 Nephi 5:242 And to be buried in a sepulcher, according to the words of Zenos which he spake concerning the three days of darkness,

1 Nephi 5:243 Which should be a sign given of His death unto them who should inhabit the isles of the sea,

1 Nephi 5:247 And others with the thunderings and the lightnings of His power - by tempest, by fire, and by smoke and vapor of darkness, and by the opening of the earth, and by mountains which shall be carried up.

1 Nephi 5:250 And because of the groanings of the earth, many of the kings of the isles of the sea shall be wrought upon by the Spirit of God to exclaim, 'The God of nature suffers! '

1 Nephi 5:251 "And as for they which are at Jerusalem, " saith the prophet, "they shall be scourged by all people, " saith the prophet, "because they crucified the God of Israel and turned their hearts aside, rejecting signs and wonders and power and glory of the God of Israel.

1 Nephi 5:252 "And because they have turned their hearts aside, " saith the prophet, "and have despised the Holy One of Israel, they shall wander in the flesh and perish, And become a hiss and a byword and be hated among all nations.

1 Nephi 5:257 "Every nation, kindred, tongue and people shall be blessed."

1 Nephi 5:259 Wherefore, I speak unto all the house of Israel, if it so be that they should obtain these things.

1 Nephi 5:264 Wherefore, it must needs be that we know concerning them, for they are written upon the plates of brass.

1 Nephi 6:5 For I did liken all scriptures unto us, that it might be for our profit and learning.

1 Nephi 6:18 For Mine own sake, yea, for Mine own sake, will I do this; For I will not suffer My name to be polluted. And I will not give My glory unto another.

1 Nephi 6:33 "And said unto Me, 'Thou art My Servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.'

1 Nephi 6:35 "And now, saith the Lord that formed Me from the womb, that I should be His Servant to bring Jacob again to Him; Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the Lord, And My God shall be My strength.

1 Nephi 6:36 And He said, 'It is a light thing that Thou shouldst be My Servant, to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the preserved of Israel; I will also give Thee for a light to the Gentiles that Thou mayest be My salvation unto the ends of the earth.'"

1 Nephi 6:39 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, 'Go forth! ' To them that sit in darkness, 'Show yourselves! ' "They shall feed in the ways and their pastures shall be in all high places,

1 Nephi 6:41 And I will make all My mountains a way, And My highways shall be exalted.

1 Nephi 6:43 Sing, O heavens! and be joyful, O earth! For the feet of them which are in the east shall be established. And break forth into singing, O mountains! For they shall be smitten no more. For the Lord hath comforted His people and will have mercy upon His afflicted.

1 Nephi 6:49 "For thy waste and thy desolate places and the land of thy destruction shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants; And they that swallowed thee up shall be far away.

1 Nephi 6:52 Thus saith the Lord God: "Behold, I will lift up Mine hand to the Gentiles and set up My standard to the people; And they shall bring thy sons in their arms, And thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders;

1 Nephi 6:53 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, And their queens thy nursing mothers; They shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth and lick up the dust of thy feet. And thou shalt know that I Am the Lord, For they shall not be ashamed that wait for Me."

1 Nephi 6:54 For shall the prey be taken from the mighty? Or the lawful captive delivered?

1 Nephi 6:55 But thus saith the Lord: "Even the captive of the mighty shall be taken away, And the prey of the terrible shall be delivered; For I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, And I will save thy children.

1 Nephi 6:56 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh. They shall be drunken with their own blood as with sweet wine. And all flesh shall know that I, the Lord, am thy Savior, And thy Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob."

1 Nephi 7:2 Behold, are they to be understood according to things which are spiritual, which shall come to pass according to the spirit and not the flesh?"

1 Nephi 7:6 For it appears that the house of Israel, sooner or later, will be scattered upon all the face of the earth, and also among all nations.

1 Nephi 7:11 "And since that they have been led away, these things have been prophesied concerning them, And also concerning all they which shall hereafter be scattered and be confounded because of the Holy One of Israel, For against Him will they harden their hearts;

1 Nephi 7:12 Wherefore, they shall be scattered among all nations and shall be hated by all men.

1 Nephi 7:13 "Nevertheless, after that they have been nursed by the Gentiles and the Lord hath lifted up His hand upon the Gentiles and set them up for a standard - And their children shall be carried in their arms, And their daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders; Behold, these things of which are spoken are temporal, For thus are the covenants of the Lord with our fathers;

1 Nephi 7:16 And by them shall our seed be scattered.

1 Nephi 7:17 "And after that our seed is scattered, the Lord God will proceed to do a marvelous work among the Gentiles which shall be of great worth unto our seed;

1 Nephi 7:19 "And it shall also be of worth unto the Gentiles,

1 Nephi 7:20 And not only unto the Gentiles, but unto all the house of Israel unto the making known of the covenants of the Father of heaven unto Abraham, saying: ' In thy Seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed. '

1 Nephi 7:21 "And I would, my brethren, that ye should know that all the kindreds of the earth cannot be blessed unless He shall make bare His arm in the eyes of the nations;

1 Nephi 7:23 "Wherefore, He will bring them again out of captivity, And they shall be gathered together to the lands of their first inheritance;

1 Nephi 7:24 And they shall be brought out of obscurity and out of darkness;

1 Nephi 7:27 For they shall war among themselves; And the sword of their own hands shall fall upon their own heads, And they shall be drunken with their own blood.

1 Nephi 7:28 "And every nation which shall war against thee, O house of Israel, shall be turned one against another;

1 Nephi 7:30 And all they which fight against Zion shall be destroyed;

1 Nephi 7:31 And that great whore which hath perverted the right ways of the Lord, yea, that great and abominable church, shall tumble to the dust, And great shall be the fall of it.

1 Nephi 7:33 For the day soon cometh that all the proud and they which do wickedly shall be as stubble; And the day cometh that they must be burned.

1 Nephi 7:34 'For the time soon cometh that the fullness of the wrath of God shall be poured out upon all the children of men,

1 Nephi 7:36 'Wherefore, He will preserve the righteous by His power, even if it so be that the fullness of His wrath must come, And the righteous be preserved, even unto the destruction of their enemies by fire;

1 Nephi 7:37 Wherefore, the righteous need not fear '; For thus saith the prophet: ' They shall be saved, even if it so be as by fire.'

1 Nephi 7:39 And it must needs be upon the face of this earth;

1 Nephi 7:40 And it cometh unto men according to the flesh, if it so be that they will harden their hearts against the Holy One of Israel.

1 Nephi 7:42 For the time surely must come that all they which fight against Zion shall be cut off.

1 Nephi 7:45 And it shall come to pass that all they which will not hear that Prophet shall be cut off from among the people.'

1 Nephi 7:48 "And the righteous need not fear, for it is they which shall not be confounded;

1 Nephi 7:49 But it is the kingdom of the devil which shall be built up among the children of men, Which kingdom is established among them which are in the flesh.

1 Nephi 7:52 It is they which must be brought low in the dust;

1 Nephi 7:53 It is they which must be consumed as stubble;

1 Nephi 7:55 "And the time cometh speedily that the righteous must be led up as calves of the stall, And the Holy One of Israel must reign in dominion and might and power and great glory.

1 Nephi 7:58 And there shall be one fold and one Shepherd;

1 Nephi 7:61 Wherefore, he cannot be loosed for the space of many years,

1 Nephi 7:64 But behold, all nations, kindreds, tongues and people shall dwell safely in the Holy One of Israel, if it so be that they will repent.

1 Nephi 7:67 And they testify that a man must be obedient to the commandments of God.

1 Nephi 7:69 "Wherefore, if ye shall be obedient to the commandments and endure to the end, ye shall be saved at the last day.

2 Nephi 1:7 A land which the Lord God hath covenanted with me should be a land for the inheritance of my seed;

2 Nephi 1:9 And also all they which should be led out of other countries by the hand of the Lord.

2 Nephi 1:10 "Wherefore, I, Lehi, prophesy according to the workings of the Spirit which is in me that there shall be none come into this land save they should be brought by the hand of the Lord;

2 Nephi 1:12 And if it so be that they shall serve Him according to the commandments which He hath given, it shall be a land of liberty unto them;

2 Nephi 1:13 Wherefore, they shall never be brought down into captivity; If so, it shall be because of iniquity,

2 Nephi 1:14 For if iniquity shall abound, cursed shall be the land for their sakes;

2 Nephi 1:15 But unto the righteous, it shall be blessed forever.

2 Nephi 1:16 "And behold, it is wisdom that this land should be kept as yet from the knowledge of other nations,

2 Nephi 1:17 For behold, many nations would overrun this land, that there would be no place for an inheritance.

2 Nephi 1:19 And they shall be kept from all other nations, that they may possess this land unto themselves;

2 Nephi 1:20 And if it so be that they shall keep His commandments, they shall be blessed upon the face of this land,

2 Nephi 1:21 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 1:24 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 1:25 Yea, as one generation passeth to another, there shall be bloodsheds and great visitations among them.

2 Nephi 1:31 My heart hath been weighed down with sorrow from time to time, For I have feared - lest for the hardness of your hearts, lest the Lord your God should come out in the fullness of His wrath upon you - that ye be cut off and destroyed forever,

2 Nephi 1:33 "O my sons, that these things might not come upon you, But that ye might be a choice and a favored people of the Lord!

2 Nephi 1:34 "But behold, His will be done, for His ways are righteousness forever; And He hath said that, 'Inasmuch as ye shall keep My commandments, ye shall prosper in the land, But inasmuch as ye will not keep My commandments, ye shall be cut off from My presence.'

2 Nephi 1:35 "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,

2 Nephi 1:36 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, That ye may not be cursed with a sore cursing,

2 Nephi 1:50 And it must needs be that the power of God must be with him, even unto his commanding you, that ye must obey;

2 Nephi 1:56 Wherefore, because thou hast been faithful, thy seed shall be blessed with his seed, that they dwell in prosperity long upon the face of this land,

2 Nephi 1:57 And nothing, save it shall be iniquity among them, shall harm or disturb their prosperity upon the face of this land forever;

2 Nephi 1:62 Wherefore, thy soul shall be blessed, And thou shalt dwell safely with thy brother Nephi, And thy days shall be spent in the service of thy God.

2 Nephi 1:72 Behold, He offereth Himself a sacrifice for sin to answer the ends of the law unto all those which have a broken heart and a contrite spirit, And unto none else can the ends of the law be answered.

2 Nephi 1:73 "Wherefore, how great the importance to make these things known unto the inhabitants of the earth, That they may know that there is no flesh that can dwell in the presence of God, save it be through the merits and mercy and grace of the Holy Messiah,

2 Nephi 1:77 And they that believe in Him shall be saved;

2 Nephi 1:79 Wherefore, they stand in the presence of Him, to be judged of Him according to the truth and holiness which is in Him.

2 Nephi 1:81 "For it must needs be that there is an opposition in all things;

2 Nephi 1:82 If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass - neither wickedness, neither holiness, nor misery, neither good, nor bad.

2 Nephi 1:83 "Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one.

2 Nephi 1:84 "Wherefore, if it should be one body, it must needs remain as dead - having no life, neither death, nor corruption, nor incorruption, happiness, nor misery, neither sense, nor insensibility;

2 Nephi 1:90 And if there be no righteousness, there be no happiness;

2 Nephi 1:91 And if there be no righteousness nor happiness, there be no punishment nor misery;

2 Nephi 1:93 And if there is no God, we are not, neither the earth, For there could have been no creation of things, neither to act, nor to be acted upon; Wherefore, all things must have vanished away.

2 Nephi 1:96 Both things to act and things to be acted upon.

2 Nephi 1:97 "And to bring about His eternal purposes in the end of man - After that 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,

2 Nephi 1:100 Wherefore, man could not act for himself, save it should be that he were enticed by the one or the other.

2 Nephi 1:104 Wherefore, he saith unto Eve - yea, even that old serpent which is the devil, which is the father of all lies - wherefore, he saith, ' Partake of the forbidden fruit and ye shall not die, but ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.'

2 Nephi 1:115 Adam fell, that men might be, And men are, that they might have joy,

2 Nephi 1:118 To act for themselves and not to be acted upon, save it be by the punishment of the Lord at the great and last day, according to the commandments which God hath given.

2 Nephi 1:121 For he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself.

2 Nephi 1:123 And be faithful unto His words and choose eternal life, according to the will of His Holy Spirit,

2 Nephi 1:128 And I have none other object, save it be the everlasting welfare of your souls. Amen.

2 Nephi 2:3 And may the Lord consecrate also unto thee this land, which is a most precious land, for thine inheritance and the inheritance of thy seed with thy brethren, for thy security forever, If it so be that ye shall keep the commandments of the Holy One of Israel.

2 Nephi 2:4 "And now Joseph, my last born whom I have brought out of the wilderness of mine afflictions, May the Lord bless thee forever, for thy seed shall not utterly be destroyed;

2 Nephi 2:8 Not the Messiah, but a branch which was to be broken off, Nevertheless, to be remembered in the covenants of the Lord -

2 Nephi 2:9 That the Messiah should be made manifest unto them in the latter days in the Spirit of power, Unto the bringing of them out of darkness unto light - yea, out of hidden darkness, and out of captivity unto freedom.

2 Nephi 2:10 "For Joseph truly testified, saying: ' A seer shall the Lord my God raise up which shall be a choice seer unto the fruit of my loins ';

2 Nephi 2:11 Yea, Joseph truly said: 'Thus saith the Lord unto me: "A choice seer will I raise up out of the fruit of thy loins, And he shall be esteemed highly among the fruit of thy loins.

2 Nephi 2:12 "And unto him will I give commandment that he shall do a work for the fruit of thy loins, his brethren, which shall be of great worth unto them, Even to the bringing of them to the knowledge of the covenants which I have made with thy fathers;

2 Nephi 2:15 And he shall be great like unto Moses, whom I have said I would raise up unto you to deliver My people, O house of Israel;

2 Nephi 2:20 And that which shall be written by the fruit of thy loins - And also that which shall be written by the fruit of the loins of Judah - Shall grow together

2 Nephi 2:24 "And out of weakness he shall be made strong in that day when My work shall commence among all My people, unto the restoring thee, O house of Israel, " saith the Lord.'

2 Nephi 2:26 And they that seek to destroy him shall be confounded;

2 Nephi 2:27 For this promise of which I have obtained of the Lord, of the fruit of thy loins, shall be fulfilled;

2 Nephi 2:29 And his name shall be called after me, And it shall be after the name of his father,

2 Nephi 2:30 And he shall be like unto me; For the thing which the Lord shall bring forth by his hand, by the power of the Lord, shall bring my people unto salvation.'

2 Nephi 2:38 'And the words which he shall write shall be the words which are expedient in My wisdom should go forth unto the fruit of thy loins;

2 Nephi 2:39 And it shall be as if the fruit of thy loins had cried unto them from the dust, for I know their faith;

2 Nephi 2:45 'Wherefore, because of this covenant, thou art blessed, For thy seed shall not be destroyed, for they shall hearken unto the words of the book;

2 Nephi 2:49 Behold, thou art little; Wherefore, hearken unto the words of thy brother Nephi and it shall be done unto thee even according to the words which I have spoken;

2 Nephi 3:9 And inasmuch as ye will not keep My commandments, ye shall be cut off from My presence.'

2 Nephi 3:12 Wherefore, if ye are cursed, behold, I leave my blessing upon you that the cursing may be taken from you and be answered upon the heads of your parents;

2 Nephi 3:13 Wherefore, because of my blessing, the Lord God will not suffer that ye shall perish; Wherefore, He will be merciful unto you and unto your seed forever."

2 Nephi 3:14 And it came to pass that after my father had made an end of speaking to the sons and daughters of Laman, he caused the sons and daughters of Lemuel to be brought before him;

2 Nephi 3:16 Behold, I leave unto you the same blessing which I left unto the sons and daughters of Laman; Wherefore, thou shalt not utterly be destroyed, but in the end thy seed shall be blessed."

2 Nephi 3:20 and thy seed shall be numbered with his seed;

2 Nephi 3:21 And thou shalt be even like unto thy brother and thy seed like unto his seed; And thou shalt be blessed in all thy days."

2 Nephi 3:54 May the gates of hell be shut continually before me because that my heart is broken and my spirit is contrite!

2 Nephi 3:55 O Lord, wilt Thou not shut the gates of Thy righteousness before me, That I may walk in the path of the low valley, That I may be strict in the plain road.

2 Nephi 4:3 Yea, they did murmur against me, saying: "Our younger brother thinketh to rule over us and we have had much trial because of him; Wherefore now let us slay him, that we may not be afflicted more because of his words;

2 Nephi 4:4 For behold, we will not that he shall be our ruler, for it belongeth unto us which are the elder brethren to rule over this people."

2 Nephi 4:23 for they were not to be found upon the land,

2 Nephi 4:24 Wherefore, it could not be built like unto Solomon's temple;

2 Nephi 4:26 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did cause my people that they should be industrious and that they should labor with their hands.

2 Nephi 4:27 And it came to pass that they would that I should be their king,

2 Nephi 4:29 And behold, the words of the Lord had been fulfilled unto my brethren which He spake concerning them, that I should be their ruler and their teacher;

2 Nephi 4:31 Wherefore, the word of the Lord was fulfilled which He spake unto me, saying that, "Inasmuch as they will not hearken unto thy words, they shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord."

2 Nephi 4:35 Wherefore, as they were white and exceeding fair and delightsome, That they might not be enticing unto my people, therefore, the Lord God did cause a skin of blackness to come upon them;

2 Nephi 4:36 And thus saith the Lord God: "I will cause that they shall be loathsome unto thy people, save they shall repent of their iniquities;

2 Nephi 4:37 And cursed shall be the seed of him that mixeth with their seed, for they shall be cursed even with the same cursing."

2 Nephi 4:40 And the Lord God said unto me: "They shall be a scourge unto thy seed, to stir them up in remembrance of Me;

2 Nephi 4:42 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did consecrate Jacob and Joseph, that they should be priests and teachers over the land of my people.

2 Nephi 4:47 Wherefore, I, Nephi, to be obedient to the commandments of the Lord, went and made these plates upon which I have engraven these things,

2 Nephi 4:49 And if my people be pleased with the things of God, they be pleased with mine engravings which are upon these plates;

2 Nephi 5:14 Wherefore, they may be likened unto you, for ye are of the house of Israel,

2 Nephi 5:15 And there are many things which have been spoken by Isaiah which may be likened unto you because that ye are of the house of Israel;

2 Nephi 5:18 And they shall bring thy sons in their arms, And thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders;

2 Nephi 5:19 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, And their queens thy nursing mothers;

2 Nephi 5:21 And thou shalt know that I Am the Lord, For they shall not be ashamed that wait for Me.'"

2 Nephi 5:27 And the day cometh that they shall be smitten and afflicted;

2 Nephi 5:28 Wherefore, after they are driven to and fro - for thus saith the angel - many shall be afflicted in the flesh and shall not be suffered to perish because of the prayers of the faithful, Wherefore, they shall be scattered and smitten and hated;

2 Nephi 5:29 Nevertheless, the Lord will be merciful unto them, that when they shall come to the knowledge of their Redeemer, they shall be gathered together again to the lands of their inheritance.

2 Nephi 5:31 For behold, if it so be that they shall repent and fight not against Zion and do not unite themselves to that great and abominable church, they shall be saved,

2 Nephi 5:34 And the people of the Lord shall not be ashamed,

2 Nephi 5:39 And they that believe not in Him shall be destroyed - both by fire and by tempest, and by earthquakes and by bloodsheds, and by pestilence and by famine.

2 Nephi 5:41 "For shall the prey be taken from the mighty? Or the lawful captive delivered?"

2 Nephi 5:42 But thus saith the Lord: "Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, And the prey of the terrible shall be delivered." For the Mighty God shall deliver His covenant people.

2 Nephi 5:44 And they shall be drunken with their own blood as with sweet wine.

2 Nephi 5:60 I hid not My face from shame and spitting. "For the Lord God will help Me; Therefore, shall I not be confounded;

2 Nephi 5:61 Therefore, have I set My face like a flint, And I know that I shall not be ashamed. And the Lord is near and He justifieth Me;

2 Nephi 5:74 Joy and gladness shall be found therein, Thanksgiving and the voice of melody.

2 Nephi 5:81 But My salvation shall be forever, And My righteousness shall not be abolished.

2 Nephi 5:83 Fear ye not the reproach of men, Neither be ye afraid of their revilings.

2 Nephi 5:85 But My righteousness shall be forever, And My salvation from generation to generation."

2 Nephi 5:90 Therefore, the redeemed of the Lord shall return and come with singing unto Zion; And everlasting joy and holiness shall be upon their heads;

2 Nephi 5:93 Behold, who art thou that thou shouldst be afraid of man which shall die? And of the son of man which shall be made like unto grass?

2 Nephi 5:97 The captive exile hasteneth, that he may be loosed and that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread should fail.

2 Nephi 5:104 These two sons are come unto thee - who shall be sorry for thee? - Thy desolation and destruction, and the famine and the sword -

2 Nephi 6:2 That He hath spoken unto the Jews by the mouth of His holy prophets, even from the beginning down, from generation to generation, Until the time cometh that they shall be restored to the true church and fold of God,

2 Nephi 6:3 When they shall be gathered home to the lands of their inheritance and shall be established in all their lands of promise.

2 Nephi 6:9 For it is expedient that it should be among them;

2 Nephi 6:11 For as death hath passed upon all men to fulfill the merciful plan of the great Creator, there must needs be a power of resurrection,

2 Nephi 6:15 Wherefore, it must needs be an infinite atonement -

2 Nephi 6:16 save it should be an infinite atonement, this corruption could not put on incorruption;

2 Nephi 6:21 And our spirits must have become like unto him, And we become devils - angels to a devil - to be shut out from the presence of our God and to remain with the father of lies, in misery like unto himself;

2 Nephi 6:29 And the grave must deliver up its captive bodies, And the bodies and the spirits of men will be restored one to the other,

2 Nephi 6:33 Save it be that our knowledge shall be perfect;

2 Nephi 6:37 And then cometh the judgment; And then must they be judged according to the holy judgment of God;

2 Nephi 6:38 And assuredly as the Lord liveth - for the Lord God hath spoken it and it is His eternal word which cannot pass away - That they which are righteous shall be righteous still, And they which are filthy shall be filthy still;

2 Nephi 6:41 O the greatness and the justice of our God! For He executeth all His words, And they have gone forth out of His mouth and His law must be fulfilled.

2 Nephi 6:42 But behold, the righteous, the saints of the Holy One of Israel - They which have believed in the Holy One of Israel, They which have endured the crosses of the world and despised the shame of it - They shall inherit the kingdom of God which was prepared for them from the foundation of the world, And their joy shall be full forever.

2 Nephi 6:48 And He commandeth all men that they must repent and be baptized in His name, having perfect faith in the Holy One of Israel, or they cannot be saved in the kingdom of God;

2 Nephi 6:49 And if they will not repent and believe in His name and be baptized in His name and endure to the end, they must be damned,

2 Nephi 6:61 But to be learned is good, if it so be that they hearken unto the counsels of God.

2 Nephi 6:68 Wo unto the liar! for he shall be thrust down to hell;

2 Nephi 6:70 Wo unto them who commit whoredoms! for they shall be thrust down to hell;

2 Nephi 6:74 Remember - to be carnally - minded is death, and to be spiritually - minded is life eternal.

2 Nephi 6:82 And there is none other way, save it be by the gate, For He cannot be deceived, for the Lord God is His name;

2 Nephi 6:85 But the things of the wise and the prudent shall be hid from them forever, Yea, that happiness which is prepared for the saints.

2 Nephi 6:88 Wherefore, ye shall know at the last day, when all men shall be judged of their works, that the God of Israel did witness that I shook your iniquities from my soul, And that I stand with brightness before Him and am rid of your blood.

2 Nephi 6:91 Prepare your souls for that glorious day when justice shall be administered unto the righteous, even the day of judgment, that ye may not shrink with awful fear,

2 Nephi 6:92 That ye may not remember your awful guilt in perfectness and be constrained to exclaim, "Holy, holy are Thy judgments, O Lord God Almighty!

2 Nephi 6:96 Would I be plain unto you, according to the plainness of the truth, if ye were freed from sin?

2 Nephi 6:97 Behold, if ye were holy, I would speak unto you of holiness, But as ye are not holy, and ye look upon me as a teacher, it must needs be expedient that I teach you the consequences of sin.

2 Nephi 6:102 and feast upon that which perisheth not, neither can be corrupted: "And let your soul delight in fatness."

2 Nephi 6:105 And because of His greatness and His grace and mercy, He hath promised unto us that our seed shall not utterly be destroyed, according to the flesh, but that He would preserve them; And in future generations they shall become a righteous branch unto the house of Israel.

2 Nephi 7:3 Wherefore, as it hath been shown unto me that many of our children shall perish in the flesh because of unbelief, nevertheless, God will be merciful unto many,

2 Nephi 7:4 And our children shall be restored, that they may come to that which will give them the true knowledge of their Redeemer.

2 Nephi 7:5 Wherefore, as I said unto you, it must needs be expedient that Christ - for in the last night the angel spake unto me that this should be His name - that He should come among the Jews, among they which are the more wicked part of the world,

2 Nephi 7:8 For should the mighty miracles be wrought among other nations, they would repent and know that He be their God;

2 Nephi 7:9 But because of priestcrafts and iniquities, they at Jerusalem will stiffen their necks against Him, that He be crucified.

2 Nephi 7:11 And they which shall not be destroyed shall be scattered among all nations.

2 Nephi 7:12 But behold, thus saith the Lord God: "When the day cometh that they shall believe in Me, that I Am Christ, Then have I covenanted with their fathers that they shall be restored in the flesh upon the earth unto the lands of their inheritance.

2 Nephi 7:13 "And it shall come to pass that they shall be gathered in from their long dispersion - from the isles of the sea, and from the four parts of the earth;

2 Nephi 7:14 And the nations of the Gentiles shall be great in the eyes of Me, " saith God, "in carrying them forth to the lands of their inheritance;

2 Nephi 7:15 Yea, the kings of the Gentiles shall be nursing fathers unto them, And their queens shall become nursing mothers."

2 Nephi 7:17 "But behold, this land, " saith God, "shall be a land of thine inheritance; And the Gentiles shall be blessed upon the land,

2 Nephi 7:18 And this land shall be a land of liberty unto the Gentiles, And there shall be no kings upon the land which shall raise up unto the Gentiles;

2 Nephi 7:21 For I, the Lord, the King of heaven, will be their king, And I will be a light unto them forever that hear My words.

2 Nephi 7:22 "Wherefore, for this cause - that My covenants may be fulfilled which I have made unto the children of men, that I will do unto them while they are in the flesh - I must needs destroy the secret works of darkness and of murders and of abominations;

2 Nephi 7:28 Nevertheless, I will soften the hearts of the Gentiles, that they shall be like unto a father to them;

2 Nephi 7:29 Wherefore, the Gentiles shall be blessed and numbered among the house of Israel.

2 Nephi 7:30 "Wherefore, I will consecrate this land unto thy seed and they which shall be numbered among thy seed, forever, for the land of their inheritance,

2 Nephi 7:37 Wherefore, as it saith "isles, " there must needs be more than this, And they are inhabited also by our brethren;

2 Nephi 7:44 That ye may be received into the eternal kingdom of God, That ye may praise Him through grace divine. Amen.

2 Nephi 8:1 And now Jacob spake many more things to my people at that time; Nevertheless, only these things have I caused to be written, For the things which I have written sufficeth me.

2 Nephi 8:13 For if there be no Christ, there be no God; And if there be no God, we are not, for there could have been no creation;

2 Nephi 8:18 And it shall come to pass in the last days when the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And all nations shall flow unto it.

2 Nephi 8:22 Therefore, O Lord, Thou hast forsaken Thy people, the house of Jacob, Because they be replenished from the east and hearken unto soothsayers like the Philistines, And they please themselves in the children of strangers.

2 Nephi 8:27 And it shall come to pass that the lofty looks of man shall be humbled, And the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down; And the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day.

2 Nephi 8:28 For the day of the Lord of Hosts soon cometh upon all nations, yea, upon everyone - Yea, upon the proud and lofty and upon everyone which is lifted up; And he shall be brought low;

2 Nephi 8:33 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, And the haughtiness of men shall be made low; And the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day,

2 Nephi 8:38 Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; For wherein is he to be accounted of?

2 Nephi 8:42 "And I will give children unto them to be their princes, And babes shall rule over them.

2 Nephi 8:43 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another and every one by his neighbor; The child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, And the base against the honorable."

2 Nephi 8:44 When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father and shall say, "Thou hast clothing; Be thou our ruler, And let not this ruin come under thy hand"-

2 Nephi 8:45 In that day shall he swear, saying: "I will not be a healer; For in my house there is neither bread nor clothing; Make me not a ruler of the people."

2 Nephi 8:47 The show of their countenance doth witness against them and doth declare their sin to be even as Sodom, And they cannot hide it. Wo unto their souls! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.

2 Nephi 8:49 Wo unto the wicked! for they shall perish, For the reward of their hands shall be upon them.

2 Nephi 8:62 And it shall all come to pass, instead of sweet smell, there shall be stink; And instead of a girdle, a rent; And instead of well - set hair, baldness; And instead of a stomacher, a girding of sackcloth; Burning, instead of beauty.

2 Nephi 8:64 And her gates shall lament and mourn, And she shall be desolate and shall sit upon the ground.

2 Nephi 8:65 And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying: "We will eat our own bread and wear our own apparel; Only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach!"

2 Nephi 8:66 In that day shall the Branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious - the fruit of the earth - and excellent and comely to them that are escaped of Israel.

2 Nephi 8:67 And it shall come to pass, them that are left in Zion and remain in Jerusalem shall be called holy - Everyone that is written among the living in Jerusalem.

2 Nephi 8:69 And the Lord will create upon every dwelling place of Mount Zion, And upon her assemblies, a cloud of smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night; For upon all, the glory of Zion shall be a defense.

2 Nephi 8:70 And there shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the daytime from the heat, And for a place of refuge and a covert from storm and from rain.

2 Nephi 8:75 And now, go to; I will tell you what I will do to My vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; And I will break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down;

2 Nephi 8:76 And I will lay it waste. It shall not be pruned nor digged, but there shall come up briers and thorns. I will also command the clouds, that they rain no rain upon it."

2 Nephi 8:78 Wo unto them that join house to house! till there can be no place that they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth.

2 Nephi 8:79 In mine ears saith the Lord of Hosts, "Of a truth, many houses shall be desolate, And great and fair cities without inhabitant.

2 Nephi 8:85 And the mean man shall be brought down, And the mighty man shall be humbled, And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled.

2 Nephi 8:86 But the Lord of Hosts shall be exalted in judgment, And God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.

2 Nephi 8:94 Therefore, as the fire devoureth the stubble, And the flame consumeth the chaff, Their root shall be rottenness; And their blossom shall go up as dust because they have cast away the law of the Lord of Hosts and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

2 Nephi 8:97 None shall be weary, nor stumble among them, none shall slumber, nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken;

2 Nephi 8:98 Whose arrows shall be sharp and all their bows bent; And their horses' hoofs shall be counted like flint and their wheels like a whirlwind; Their roaring like a lion -

2 Nephi 9:10 "Make the heart of this people fat, And make their ears heavy and shut their eyes, Lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert and be healed."

2 Nephi 9:11 Then said I: "Lord, how long?" And He said: "Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,

2 Nephi 9:12 and the Lord have removed men far away, For there shall be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.

2 Nephi 9:13 But yet, in it there shall be a tenth; And they shall return and shall be eaten, as a teil tree and as an oak whose substance is in them when they cast their leaves - So the holy seed shall be the substance thereof."

2 Nephi 9:17 And say unto him: 'Take heed and be quiet; Fear not, neither be fainthearted, for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, For the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria and of the son of Remaliah.

2 Nephi 9:21 For the head of Syria is Damascus, And the head of Damascus, Rezin; And within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people,

2 Nephi 9:22 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, And the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established."'

2 Nephi 9:29 For before the Child shall know to refuse the evil and choose the good, The land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.

2 Nephi 9:36 And it shall come to pass in that day, every place shall be - where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings - which shall be for briers and thorns.

2 Nephi 9:38 And all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, There shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns; But it shall be for the sending forth of oxen and the treading of lesser cattle.

2 Nephi 9:42 For behold, the child shall not have knowledge to cry, 'My father' and 'My mother, ' before the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be taken away before the king of Assyria."

2 Nephi 9:47 "Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in pieces! And give ear, all ye of far countries. Gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; Gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces.

2 Nephi 9:50 "Say ye not, ' a confederacy, ' to all to whom this people shall say, ' a confederacy '; Neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid.

2 Nephi 9:51 Sanctify the Lord of Hosts Himself, And let Him be your fear, And let Him be your dread.

2 Nephi 9:52 And He shall be for a sanctuary; But for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense, to both the houses of Israel; For a gin and a snare, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

2 Nephi 9:53 And many among them shall stumble and fall and be broken and be snared and be taken."

2 Nephi 9:59 And they shall pass through it hardly bestead and hungry; And it shall come to pass that when they shall be hungry, They shall fret themselves and curse their King and their God and look upward.

2 Nephi 9:60 And they shall look unto the earth and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish, And shall be driven to darkness.

2 Nephi 9:61 Nevertheless, the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, When at the first He lightly afflicted the Land of Zebulon and the Land of Naphtali, And afterward did more grievously afflict by the way of the Red Sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee, of the nations.

2 Nephi 9:65 For every battle of the warrior with confused noise and garments rolled in blood, But this shall be with burning and fuel of fire.

2 Nephi 9:66 For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; And the government shall be upon His shoulder. And His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

2 Nephi 9:79 Through the wrath of the Lord of Hosts is the land darkened, And the people shall be as the fuel of the fire; No man shall spare his brother.

2 Nephi 9:80 And he shall snatch on the right hand and be hungry; And he shall eat on the left hand and they shall not be satisfied; They shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm.

2 Nephi 9:81 Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh - they together shall be against Judah. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand stretched out still.

2 Nephi 9:83 To turn aside the needy from judgment and to take away the right from the poor of My people, That widows may be their prey and that they may rob the fatherless.

2 Nephi 9:98 And the Light of Israel shall be for a fire and his Holy One for a flame, And shall burn and shall devour his thorns and his briers in one day;

2 Nephi 9:99 And shall consume the glory of his forest and of his fruitful field, both soul and body; And they shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth.

2 Nephi 9:100 And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.

2 Nephi 9:103 For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, Yet a remnant of them shall return; The consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness.

2 Nephi 9:105 Therefore, thus saith the Lord God of Hosts: "O My people that dwellest in Zion, Be not afraid of the Assyrian; He shall smite thee with a rod and shall lift up his staff against thee after the manner of Egypt.

2 Nephi 9:108 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, And the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

2 Nephi 9:111 Lift up the voice, O daughter of Gallim! Cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth!

2 Nephi 9:114 Behold, the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, shall lop the bough with terror; And the high ones of stature shall be hewn down; And the haughty shall be humbled;

2 Nephi 9:120 And righteousness shall be the girdle of His loins, And faithfulness the girdle of His reins.

2 Nephi 9:124 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.

2 Nephi 9:125 And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; To it shall the Gentiles seek, And His rest shall be glorious.

2 Nephi 9:126 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people which shall be left - From Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

2 Nephi 9:128 The envy of Ephraim also shall depart, And the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off; Ephraim shall not envy Judah, And Judah shall not vex Ephraim.

2 Nephi 9:131 And there shall be a highway for the remnant of His people which shall be left, from Assyria, Like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the Land of Egypt.

2 Nephi 9:133 Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; For the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; He also is become my salvation."

2 Nephi 10:7 Therefore shall all hands be faint; Every man's heart shall melt,

2 Nephi 10:8 And they shall be afraid. Pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; They shall be amazed one at another; Their faces shall be as flames.

2 Nephi 10:10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; The sun shall be darkened in His going forth, And the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

2 Nephi 10:14 And it shall be as the chased roe and as a sheep that no man taketh up; They shall every man turn to his own people and flee everyone into his own land.

2 Nephi 10:15 Everyone that is proud shall be thrust through, Yea, and everyone that is joined to the wicked shall fall by the sword.

2 Nephi 10:16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; Their houses shall be spoiled and their wives ravished.

2 Nephi 10:19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldee's excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

2 Nephi 10:20 It shall never be inhabited, Neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation, Neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there, Neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.

2 Nephi 10:21 But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there, And their houses shall be full of doleful creatures, And owls shall dwell there and satyrs shall dance there.

2 Nephi 10:22 And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses and dragons in their pleasant palaces. And her time is near to come and her day shall not be prolonged, for I will destroy her speedily; Yea, for I will be merciful unto My people; But the wicked shall perish."

2 Nephi 10:23 For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob and will yet choose Israel and set them in their own land; And the strangers shall be joined with them, And they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.

2 Nephi 10:24 And the people shall take them and bring them to their place, yea, from far unto the ends of the earth; And they shall return to their lands of promise; And the house of Israel shall possess them, And the land of the Lord shall be for servants and handmaids; And they shall take them captives unto whom they were captives; And they shall rule over their oppressors.

2 Nephi 10:36 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.'

2 Nephi 10:37 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

2 Nephi 10:42 Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, Because thou hast destroyed thy land and slain thy people. The seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.

2 Nephi 10:51 "Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken; For out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, And his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.

2 Nephi 10:53 Howl, O gate! Cry, O city! Thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved; For there shall come from the north a smoke, And none shall be alone in his appointed times."

2 Nephi 11:8 Yea, and my soul delighteth in the words of Isaiah, For I came out from Jerusalem and mine eyes hath beheld the things of the Jews; And I know that the Jews do understand the things of the prophets, And there is none other people that understand the things of the prophets which were spoken unto the Jews, like unto them, Save it be that they are taught after the manner of the things of the Jews.

2 Nephi 11:12 Nevertheless, in the days that the prophecies of Isaiah shall be fulfilled, men shall know of a surety at the times when they shall come to pass;

2 Nephi 11:14 For I know that they shall be of great worth unto them in the last days, for in that day shall they understand them; Wherefore, for their good have I written them.

2 Nephi 11:18 Nevertheless, they hardened their hearts and, according to my prophecy, they have been destroyed, save it be those which are carried away captive into Babylon.

2 Nephi 11:20 And notwithstanding that they have been carried away, they shall return again and possess the Land of Jerusalem; Wherefore, they shall be restored again to the lands of their inheritance.

2 Nephi 11:22 Behold, they will crucify Him. And after that He is laid in a sepulcher for the space of three days, He shall rise from the dead with healing in His wings; And all they that shall believe on His name shall be saved in the kingdom of God;

2 Nephi 11:24 And behold, it shall come to pass that after the Messiah hath risen from the dead and hath manifested Himself unto His people, unto as many as will believe on His name, Behold, Jerusalem shall be destroyed again, For wo unto them that fight against God and the people of His church!

2 Nephi 11:25 Wherefore, the Jews shall be scattered among all nations, Yea, and also Babylon shall be destroyed; Wherefore, the Jews shall be scattered by other nations,

2 Nephi 11:26 And after that they have been scattered and the Lord God hath scourged them by other nations for the space of many generations - Yea, even down from generation to generation until they shall be persuaded to believe in Christ, the Son of God, and the atonement, which is infinite for all mankind -

2 Nephi 11:27 And when that day shall come that they shall believe in Christ, And worship the Father in His name, with pure hearts and clean hands, And look not forward anymore for another Messiah - And then at that time, the day will come that it must needs be expedient that they should believe these things.

2 Nephi 11:31 For they shall be given them for the purpose of convincing them of the true Messiah who was rejected by them,

2 Nephi 11:33 For there should not any come, save it should be a false messiah which should deceive the people;

2 Nephi 11:34 For there is save one Messiah spoken of by the prophets, And that Messiah is He which should be rejected of the Jews,

2 Nephi 11:36 And according to the words of the prophets, and also the word of the angel of God, His name should be Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

2 Nephi 11:39 Yea, behold I say unto you that as these things are true, And as the Lord God liveth, There is none other name given under heaven, save it be this Jesus Christ of which I have spoken, whereby man can be saved.

2 Nephi 11:40 Wherefore, for this cause hath the Lord God promised unto me that these things which I write shall be kept and preserved and handed down unto my seed from generation to generation: That the promise may be fulfilled unto Joseph that his seed should never perish as long as the earth should stand.

2 Nephi 11:42 And the nations which shall possess them shall be judged of them, according to the words which are written;

2 Nephi 11:43 For we labor diligently to write, to persuade our children and also our brethren to believe in Christ and to be reconciled to God,

2 Nephi 11:45 And notwithstanding we believe in Christ, We keep the law of Moses and look forward with steadfastness unto Christ until the law shall be fulfilled, For, for this end was the law given;

2 Nephi 11:51 And after that the law is fulfilled in Christ, that they need not harden their hearts against Him when the law had ought to be done away.

2 Nephi 11:56 Wherefore, ye must bow down before Him and worship Him with all your might, mind and strength and your whole soul; And if ye do this, ye shall in no wise be cast out;

2 Nephi 11:57 And inasmuch as it shall be expedient, ye must keep the performances and ordinances of God until the law shall be fulfilled which was given unto Moses.

2 Nephi 11:59 And the words which He shall speak unto you shall be the law which ye shall do.

2 Nephi 11:60 For behold, I say unto you that I have beheld that many generations shall pass away; And there shall be great wars and contentions among my people.

2 Nephi 11:61 And after that the Messiah shall come, there shall be signs given unto my people of His birth, and also of His death and resurrection;

2 Nephi 11:62 And great and terrible shall that day be unto the wicked, for they shall perish;

2 Nephi 11:65 "Wherefore, all they that are proud and that do wickedly, the day that cometh shall burn them up, " saith the Lord of Hosts, "for they shall be as stubble;

2 Nephi 11:68 And they shall be visited with thunderings and lightnings and earthquakes and all manner of destructions;

2 Nephi 11:69 For the fire of the anger of the Lord shall be kindled against them and they shall be as stubble; And the day that cometh shall consume them, " saith the Lord of Hosts.

2 Nephi 11:78 And as I spake concerning the convincing of the Jews that Jesus is the very Christ, It must needs be that the Gentiles be convinced also that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God, And that He manifesteth Himself unto all they that believe in Him by the power of the Holy Ghost,

2 Nephi 11:83 And after that they shall have been brought down low in the dust, even that they are not, Yet the words of the righteous shall be written, And the prayers of the faithful shall be heard, And all they which have dwindled in unbelief shall not be forgotten.

2 Nephi 11:84 For they which shall be destroyed shall speak unto them out of the ground, And their speech shall be low, out of the dust, And their voice shall be as one that hath a familiar spirit,

2 Nephi 11:86 For thus saith the Lord God: "They shall write the things which shall be done among them, And they shall be written and sealed up in a book; And they that have dwindled in unbelief shall not have them, for they seek to destroy the things of God;

2 Nephi 11:87 Wherefore, as they which have been destroyed have been destroyed speedily, And the multitude of their terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away,

2 Nephi 11:88 Yea, " thus saith the Lord God, "it shall be at an instant, suddenly!"

2 Nephi 11:89 And it shall come to pass that they which have dwindled in unbelief shall be smitten by the hand of the Gentiles;

2 Nephi 11:96 He doeth not anything, save it be for the benefit of the world, For He loveth the world, even that He layeth down His own life that He may draw all men unto Him;

2 Nephi 11:106 He commandeth that there shall be no priestcrafts; For behold, priestcrafts are that men preach and set themselves up for a light unto the world, that they may get gain and praise of the world, But they seek not the welfare of Zion.

2 Nephi 11:112 And He doeth nothing save it be plain unto the children of men;

2 Nephi 11:116 But behold, in the last days, or in the days of the Gentiles, Yea, behold, all the nations of the Gentiles, and also the Jews - Both they which shall come upon this land, And they which shall be upon other lands, yea, even upon all the lands of the earth - Behold, they will be drunken with iniquity and all manner of abominations.

2 Nephi 11:117 And when that day shall come, they shall be visited of the Lord of Hosts, With thunder and with earthquake, and with a great noise, and with storm and tempest, and with the flame of devouring fire;

2 Nephi 11:118 And all the nations that fight against Zion and that distress her shall be as a dream of a night vision;

2 Nephi 11:119 Yea, it shall be unto them even as unto a hungry man which dreameth, And behold - he eateth, But he awaketh, and his soul is empty;

2 Nephi 11:121 Yea, even so shall the multitude of all the nations be that fight against Mount Zion.

2 Nephi 11:122 For behold, all ye that do iniquity, stay yourselves and wonder; For ye shall cry out and cry, Yea, ye shall be drunken, but not with wine; Ye shall stagger, but not with strong drink.

2 Nephi 11:125 And it shall come to pass that the Lord God shall bring forth unto you the words of a book; And they shall be the words of them which have slumbered;

2 Nephi 11:126 And behold, the book shall be sealed; And in the book shall be a revelation from God, from the beginning of the world to the ending thereof.

2 Nephi 11:127 Wherefore, because of the things which are sealed up, the things which are sealed shall not be delivered in the day of the wickedness and abominations of the people;

2 Nephi 11:128 Wherefore, the book shall be kept from them;

2 Nephi 11:129 But the book shall be delivered unto a man, And he shall deliver the words of the book, which are the words of they which have slumbered in the dust, And he shall deliver these words unto another; But the words which are sealed he shall not deliver, Neither shall he deliver the book.

2 Nephi 11:130 For the book shall be sealed by the power of God; And the revelation which was sealed shall be kept in the book until the own due time of the Lord, that they may come forth; For behold, they reveal all things from the foundation of the world unto the end thereof.

2 Nephi 11:131 And the day cometh that the words of the book which were sealed shall be read upon the housetops; And they shall be read by the power of Christ;

2 Nephi 11:132 And all things shall be revealed unto the children of men which ever hath been among the children of men, and which ever will be, Even unto the end of the earth.

2 Nephi 11:133 Wherefore, at that day when the book shall be delivered unto the man of whom I have spoken, The book shall be hid from the eyes of the world that the eyes of none shall behold it, Save it be that three witnesses shall behold it by the power of God, besides him to whom the book shall be delivered, And they shall testify to the truth of the book and the things therein;

2 Nephi 11:134 And there is none other which shall view it, Save it be a few according to the will of God, to bear testimony of His word unto the children of men; For the Lord God hath said that the words of the faithful should speak as if it were from the dead.

2 Nephi 11:135 Wherefore, the Lord God will proceed to bring forth the words of the book; And in the mouth of as many witnesses as seemeth Him good will He establish His word; And wo be unto him that rejecteth the word of God!

2 Nephi 11:145 "For behold, I Am God and I Am a God of miracles; And I will show unto the world that I Am the same yesterday, today and forever; And I work not among the children of men, save it be according to their faith."

2 Nephi 11:146 And again, it shall come to pass that the Lord shall say unto him that shall read the words that shall be delivered him: "Forasmuch as this people draw near unto Me with their mouth and with their lips do honor Me, But have removed their heart far from Me and their fear toward Me is taught by the precept of men, Therefore, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people,

2 Nephi 11:147 Yea, a marvelous work and a wonder; For the wisdom of their wise and learned shall perish, And the understanding of their prudent shall be hid.

2 Nephi 11:150 And they also say, 'Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay.'

2 Nephi 11:154 "But behold, " saith the Lord of Hosts, "I will show unto the children of men that it is not yet a very little while and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field; And the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest.

2 Nephi 11:156 And the meek also shall increase and their joy shall be in the Lord, And the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

2 Nephi 11:158 "Therefore, " thus saith the Lord, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: "Jacob shall not now be ashamed, Neither shall his face now wax pale;

2 Nephi 12:2 And the things which shall be written out of the book shall be of great worth unto the children of men, And especially unto our seed which are a remnant of the house of Israel.

2 Nephi 12:9 Yea, and there shall be many which shall say: "Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die and it shall be well with us."

2 Nephi 12:10 And there shall also be many which shall say, "Eat, drink and be merry, nevertheless fear God; He will justify in committing a little sin; Yea, lie a little, Take the advantage of one because of his words, Dig a pit for thy neighbor - There is no harm in doing these things;

2 Nephi 12:11 And do all these things, for tomorrow we die; And if it so be that we are guilty, God will beat us with a few stripes, And at last we shall be saved in the kingdom of God."

2 Nephi 12:12 Yea, and there shall be many which shall teach after this manner false and vain and foolish doctrines, And shall be puffed up in their hearts, And shall seek deep to hide their counsels from the Lord, And their works shall be in the dark, And the blood of the saints shall cry from the ground against them.

2 Nephi 12:16 They wear stiff necks and high heads. Yea, and because of pride and wickedness and abominations and whoredoms they have all gone astray, save it be a few which are the humble followers of Christ;

2 Nephi 12:18 O the wise and the learned and the rich that are puffed up in the pride of their hearts! And all they that preach false doctrines, And all they that commit whoredoms and pervert the right way of the Lord; "Wo! Wo! Wo be unto them!" saith the Lord God Almighty, "For they shall be thrust down to hell;

2 Nephi 12:21 "But behold, if the inhabitants of the earth shall repent of their wickedness and abominations, they shall not be destroyed, " saith the Lord of Hosts.

2 Nephi 12:22 But behold, that great and abominable church, the whore of all the earth, must tumble to the earth and great must be the fall thereof,

2 Nephi 12:23 For the kingdom of the devil must shake, And they which belong to it must needs be stirred up unto repentance, Or the devil will grasp them with his everlasting chains and they be stirred up to anger and perish.

2 Nephi 12:29 Yea, they are grasped with death and hell; And death and hell and the devil and all that have been seized therewith must stand before the throne of God and be judged according to their works, From whence they must go into the place prepared for them, even a lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment.

2 Nephi 12:30 Therefore, wo be unto him that is at ease in Zion!

2 Nephi 12:31 Wo be unto him that crieth, "All is well"! Yea, wo be unto him that hearkeneth unto the precepts of men and denieth the power of God and the gift of the Holy Ghost!

2 Nephi 12:32 Yea, wo be unto him that saith, "We have received and we need no more"!

2 Nephi 12:35 Wo be unto him that shall say, "We have received the word of God and we need no more of the word of God, for we have enough"!

2 Nephi 12:38 For unto him that receiveth, I will give more; And them that shall say, 'We have enough, ' from them shall be taken away even that which they have.

2 Nephi 12:39 "Cursed is he that putteth his trust in man, Or maketh flesh his arm, Or shall hearken unto the precepts of men, save their precepts shall be given by the power of the Holy Ghost.

2 Nephi 12:40 "Wo be unto the Gentiles!" saith the Lord God of Hosts; "For notwithstanding I shall lengthen out Mine arm unto them from day to day, they will deny Me;

2 Nephi 12:41 Nevertheless, I will be merciful unto them, " saith the Lord God, "if they will repent and come unto Me, For Mine arm is lengthened out all the day long, " saith the Lord God of Hosts.

2 Nephi 12:42 "But behold, there shall be many at that day when I shall proceed to do a marvelous work among them, That I may remember My covenants which I have made unto the children of men, That I may set My hand again the second time to recover My people which are of the house of Israel,

2 Nephi 12:45 And because My words shall hiss forth, many of the Gentiles shall say: 'A Bible, a Bible, we have got a Bible, And there cannot be any more Bible.'"

2 Nephi 12:63 "And because that I have spoken one word, Ye need not suppose that I cannot speak another; For My work is not yet finished; Neither shall it be until the end of man; Neither from that time henceforth and forever.

2 Nephi 12:64 "Wherefore, because that ye have a Bible, Ye need not suppose that it contains all My words; Neither need ye suppose that I have not caused more to be written;

2 Nephi 12:66 For out of the books which shall be written, I will judge the world, Every man according to their works, According to that which is written.

2 Nephi 12:73 "And it shall come to pass that My people, which are of the house of Israel, Shall be gathered home unto the lands of their possessions; And My word also shall be gathered in one.

2 Nephi 12:75 And now behold, my beloved brethren, I would speak unto you; For I, Nephi, would not suffer that ye should suppose that ye are more righteous than the Gentiles shall be.

2 Nephi 12:77 For behold I say unto you, As many of the Gentiles as will repent are the covenant people of the Lord; And as many of the Jews as will not repent shall be cast off;

2 Nephi 12:78 For the Lord covenanteth with none, Save it be with them that repent and believe in His Son, which is the Holy One of Israel.

2 Nephi 12:80 For after the book of which I have spoken shall come forth and be written unto the Gentiles and sealed up again unto the Lord, There shall be many which shall believe the words which are written; And they shall carry them forth unto the remnant of our seed.

2 Nephi 12:82 And the gospel of Jesus Christ shall be declared among them; Wherefore, they shall be restored unto the knowledge of their fathers, And also to the knowledge of Jesus Christ which was had among their fathers.

2 Nephi 12:84 And their scales of darkness shall begin to fall from their eyes; And many generations shall not pass away among them, save they shall be a white and a delightsome people.

2 Nephi 12:90 For the time speedily cometh that the Lord God shall cause a great division among the people; And the wicked will He destroy, And He will spare His people, Yea, even if it so be that He must destroy the wicked by fire.

2 Nephi 12:91 And righteousness shall be the girdle of His loins, And faithfulness the girdle of His reins.

2 Nephi 12:95 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain; For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea.

2 Nephi 12:96 Wherefore, the things of all nations shall be made known; Yea, all things shall be made known unto the children of men -

2 Nephi 12:97 There is nothing which is secret, save it shall be revealed; There is no work of darkness, save it shall be made manifest in the light; And there is nothing which is sealed upon earth, save it shall be loosed -

2 Nephi 12:98 Wherefore, all things which have been revealed unto the children of men shall at that day be revealed;

2 Nephi 13:3 Wherefore, the things which I have written sufficeth me, save it be a few words which I must speak concerning the doctrine of Christ; Wherefore, I shall speak unto you plainly, according to the plainness of my prophesying,

2 Nephi 13:7 And now if the Lamb of God, He being holy, should have need to be baptized by water to fulfill all righteousness, O then, how much more need have we, being unholy, to be baptized, yea, even by water!

2 Nephi 13:9 But notwithstanding He being holy, He showeth unto the children of men that according to the flesh He humbleth Himself before the Father, And witnesseth unto the Father that He would be obedient unto Him in keeping His commandments;

2 Nephi 13:13 Wherefore my beloved brethren, can we follow Jesus save we shall be willing to keep the commandments of the Father?

2 Nephi 13:14 And the Father saith: "Repent ye! Repent ye! And be baptized in the name of My beloved Son!"

2 Nephi 13:20 He that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved."

2 Nephi 13:21 And now my beloved brethren, I know by this that unless a man shall endure to the end in following the example of the Son of the living God, he cannot be saved.

2 Nephi 13:31 And now behold, my beloved brethren, this is the way, And there is none other way nor name given under heaven whereby man can be saved in the kingdom of God.

2 Nephi 14:5 Wherefore, now after that I have spoken these words, If ye cannot understand them, it will be because ye ask not, neither do ye knock; Wherefore, ye are not brought into the light, but must perish in the dark.

2 Nephi 14:7 Behold, this is the doctrine of Christ; And there will be no more doctrine given until after that He shall manifest Himself unto you in the flesh;

2 Nephi 14:9 And now I, Nephi, cannot say more, the Spirit stoppeth mine utterance, And I am left to mourn because of the unbelief and the wickedness and the ignorance and the stiff-neckedness of men, For they will not search knowledge, nor understand great knowledge when it is given unto them in plainness, even as plain as word can be.

2 Nephi 14:12 But behold, I say unto you that ye must pray always and not faint, That ye must not perform anything unto the Lord save in the first place ye shall pray unto the Father in the name of Christ, That He will consecrate thy performance unto thee, that thy performance may be for the welfare of thy soul.

2 Nephi 15:6 And it speaketh harsh against sin, according to the plainness of the truth; Wherefore, no man will be angry at the words which I have written, save he shall be of the spirit of the devil.

2 Nephi 15:10 But behold, for none of these I cannot hope, except they shall be reconciled unto Christ, And enter into the narrow gate and walk in the strait path which leads to life, And continue in the path until the end of the day of probation.

2 Nephi 15:15 And I pray the Father in the name of Christ that many of us, if not all, may be saved in His kingdom at that great and last day.

2 Nephi 15:18 For what I seal on earth shall be brought against you at the judgment bar; For thus hath the Lord commanded me and I must obey. Amen.

Jacob 1:2 And he gave me, Jacob, a commandment that I should write upon these plates a few of the things which I considered to be most precious, That I should not touch, save it were lightly, concerning the history of this people, which are called the people of Nephi;

Jacob 1:3 For he said that the history of his people should be engraven upon his other plates, And that I should preserve these plates and hand them down unto my seed from generation to generation;

Jacob 1:9 Now Nephi began to be old and he saw that he must soon die; Wherefore, he anointed a man to be a king and a ruler over his people; Now according to the reigns of the kings,

Jacob 1:11 And whoso should reign in his stead were called by the people Second Nephi, Third Nephi, etc., according to the reigns of the kings; And thus they were called by the people, let them be of whatsoever name they would.

Jacob 1:16 Yea, and they also began to search much gold and silver and began to be lifted up somewhat in pride;

Jacob 1:20 Wherefore, by laboring with our mights, their blood might not come upon our garments - Otherwise their blood would come upon our garments and we would not be found spotless at the last day.

Jacob 2:9 Wherefore, it burdeneth my soul that I should be constrained, because of the strict commandment which I have received from God, to admonish you according to your crimes, to enlarge the wounds of those which are already wounded, instead of consoling and healing their wounds;

Jacob 2:22 Think of your brethren like unto yourselves and be familiar with all and free with your substance, that they may be rich like unto you;

Jacob 2:36 Wherefore my brethren, hear me and hearken to the word of the Lord: "For there shall not any man among you have save it be one wife, And concubines he shall have none; For I, the Lord God, delighteth in the chastity of women,

Jacob 2:38 "Wherefore, this people shall keep My commandments, " saith the Lord of Hosts, "or cursed be the land for their sakes;

Jacob 2:55 For they have not forgotten the commandments of the Lord which were given unto our father that they should have save it were one wife and concubines they should have none, And there should not be whoredoms committed among them;

Jacob 2:56 And now this commandment they observe to keep; Wherefore, because of this observance in keeping this commandment, the Lord God will not destroy them, but will be merciful unto them, And one day they shall become a blessed people.

Jacob 2:59 O my brethren, I fear that unless ye shall repent of your sins, that their skins will be whiter than yours when ye shall be brought with them before the throne of God.

Jacob 2:63 And also remember that ye may, because of your filthiness, bring your children unto destruction and their sins be heaped upon your heads at the last day.

Jacob 2:65 And loose yourselves from the pains of hell, that ye may not become angels to the devil, to be cast into that lake of fire and brimstone, which is the second death.

Jacob 2:67 And a hundredth part of the proceedings of this people, which now began to be numerous, cannot be written upon these plates;

Jacob 3:2 But whatsoever things we write upon anything, save it be upon plates, must perish and vanish away, But we can write a few words upon plates which will give our children, and also our beloved brethren, a small degree of knowledge concerning us, or concerning their fathers.

Jacob 3:6 And for this intent we keep the law of Moses, it pointing our souls to Him; And for this cause it is sanctified unto us for righteousness, Even as it was accounted unto Abraham in the wilderness to be obedient unto the commands of God in offering up his son Isaac, which was a similitude of God and His Only Begotten Son.

Jacob 3:11 And no man knoweth of His ways, save it be revealed unto him; Wherefore brethren, despise not the revelations of God.

Jacob 3:16 Wherefore beloved brethren, be reconciled unto Him through the atonement of Christ, His Only Begotten Son,

Jacob 3:17 That ye may obtain a resurrection, according to the power of the resurrection which is in Christ, And be presented as the firstfruits of Christ unto God, Having faith and obtained a good hope of glory in Him before He manifesteth Himself in the flesh.

Jacob 3:20 Wherefore, it speaketh of things as they really are and of things as they really will be; Wherefore, these things are manifested unto us plainly for the salvation of our souls.

Jacob 3:36 Wherefore, go and pluck the branches from a wild olive tree and bring them hither unto Me, And We will pluck off those main branches which are beginning to wither away, And We will cast them into the fire that they may be burned.

Jacob 3:38 And it mattereth not that if it so be that the root of this tree will perish, I may preserve the fruit thereof unto Myself;

Jacob 3:43 And the Lord of the vineyard caused that it should be digged about and pruned and nourished, saying unto His Servant: 'It grieveth Me that I should lose this tree;

Jacob 3:84 And because that it hath brought forth so much evil fruit, Thou beholdest that it beginneth to perish, And it will soon become ripened that it may be cast into the fire, except We should do something for it to preserve it.'

Jacob 3:92 And now all the trees of My vineyard are good for nothing, save it be to be hewn down and cast into the fire;

Jacob 3:99 'But behold, they have become like unto the wild olive tree and they are of no worth but to be hewn down and cast into the fire; And it grieveth Me that I should lose them;

Jacob 3:103 And it grieveth Me that I should hew down all the trees of My vineyard and cast them into the fire, that they should be burned;

Jacob 3:117 Yea, I will graft in unto them the branches of their mother tree, that I may preserve the roots also unto Mine own self, That when they shall be sufficiently strong, that perhaps they may bring forth good fruit unto Me and I may yet have glory in the fruit of My vineyard.

Jacob 3:120 "And the Lord of the vineyard saith unto the Servant: 'Pluck not the wild branches from the trees, save it be those which are most bitter, And in them Ye shall graft according to that which I have said;

Jacob 3:127 Graft in the branches; Begin at the last, that they may be first, and that the first may be last; And dig about the trees - both old and young, the first and the last, and the last and the first - That all may be nourished once again for the last time.

Jacob 3:129 And if it so be that these last grafts shall grow and bring forth the natural fruit, then shall Ye prepare the way for them that they may grow;

Jacob 3:131 And Ye shall not clear away the bad thereof all at once, lest the roots thereof should be too strong for the graft, And the graft thereof shall perish and I lose the trees of My vineyard;

Jacob 3:132 For it grieveth Me that I should lose the trees of My vineyard. 'Wherefore, Ye shall clear away the bad according as the good shall grow, That the root and the top may be equal in strength, until the good shall overcome the bad, And the bad be hewn down and cast into the fire, that they cumber not the ground of My vineyard; And thus will I sweep away the bad out of My vineyard.

Jacob 3:134 And thus will I bring them together again, that they shall bring forth the natural fruit and they shall be one;

Jacob 3:135 And the bad shall be cast away, yea, even out of all the land of My vineyard; For behold, only this once will I prune My vineyard.'

Jacob 3:141 And there began to be the natural fruit again in the vineyard, And the natural branches began to grow and thrive exceedingly,

Jacob 3:142 And the wild branches began to be plucked off and to be cast away, And they did keep the root and the top thereof equal, according to the strength thereof.

Jacob 3:151 'And when the time cometh that evil fruit shall again come into My vineyard, Then will I cause the good and the bad to be gathered;

Jacob 3:153 And then cometh the season and the end, And My vineyard will I cause to be burned with fire.'"

Jacob 4:4 And how blessed are they who have labored diligently in His vineyard! And how cursed are they which shall be cast out into their own place!

Jacob 4:5 And the world shall be burned with fire;

Jacob 4:7 And they are a stiff-necked and a gainsaying people, But as many as will not harden their hearts shall be saved in the kingdom of God.

Jacob 4:11 For behold, after that ye have been nourished by the good word of God all the day long, Will ye bring forth evil fruit, that ye must be hewn down and cast into the fire?

Jacob 4:15 And according to the power of justice - for justice cannot be denied - that ye must go away into that lake of fire and brimstone, Whose flames are unquenchable and whose smoke ascendeth up forever and ever, which lake of fire and brimstone is endless torment?

Jacob 4:17 O be wise! What can I say more?

Jacob 5:2 And it came to pass that he began to preach among the people and to declare unto them that there should be no Christ;

Jacob 5:8 And also, I had heard the voice of the Lord speaking unto me in very word from time to time, Wherefore, I could not be shaken.

Jacob 5:15 And he saith: "If there should be a Christ, I would not deny Him; But I know that there is no Christ, neither hath been, nor never will be."

Jacob 5:21 Wherefore, I know if there should be no atonement made, all mankind must be lost."

Jacob 5:23 And I said unto him: "What am I, that I should tempt God to show unto thee a sign in the thing which thou knowest to be true?

Jacob 5:25 Nevertheless, not my will be done; But if God shall smite thee, let that be a sign unto thee that He hath power, both in heaven and in earth, And also, that Christ shall come;

Jacob 5:26 And Thy will, O Lord, be done and not mine."

Jacob 5:34 And because that I have thus lied unto God, I greatly fear lest my case shall be awful; But I confess unto God."

Jacob 5:42 And it came to pass that I, Jacob, began to be old; And the record of this people being kept on the other plates of Nephi, wherefore, I conclude this record, Declaring that I have written according to the best of my knowledge by saying

Enos 1:2 And blessed be the name of my God for it;

Enos 1:7 And there came a voice unto me, saying: "Enos, thy sins are forgiven thee and thou shalt be blessed."

Enos 1:15 I have given unto them this land and it is a holy land, And I curse it not, save it be for the cause of iniquity;

Enos 1:17 And after that I, Enos, had heard these words, my faith began to be unshaken in the Lord, And I prayed unto Him with many long strugglings for my brethren the Lamanites.

Enos 1:19 And now behold, this was the desire which I desired of Him: That if it should so be that my people the Nephites, should fall into transgression and by any means be destroyed, and the Lamanites should not be destroyed, That the Lord God would preserve a record of my people the Nephites,

Enos 1:20 Even if it so be by the power of His holy arm, That it might be brought forth at some future day unto the Lamanites, that perhaps they might be brought unto salvation;

Enos 1:27 And I, Enos, knew that it would be according to the covenant which He had made, Wherefore, my soul did rest;

Enos 1:28 And the Lord said unto me: "Thy fathers have also required of Me this thing; And it shall be done unto them according to their faith, for their faith was like unto thine."

Enos 1:42 And it came to pass that I began to be old; And an hundred and seventy and nine years had passed away from the time that our father Lehi left Jerusalem;

Omni 1:8 For the Lord would not suffer - after He had led them out of the Land of Jerusalem and kept and preserved them from falling into the hands of their enemies - Yea, He would not suffer that the words should not be verified which He spake unto our fathers, saying that, "Inasmuch as ye will not keep My commandments, ye shall not prosper in the land."

Omni 1:32 But it came to pass that Mosiah caused that they should be taught in his language.

Omni 1:34 And it came to pass that the people of Zarahemla and of Mosiah did unite together, And Mosiah was appointed to be their king.

Omni 1:43 And it came to pass that I began to be old; And having no seed and knowing King Benjamin to be a just man before the Lord, Wherefore, I shall deliver up these plates unto him, Exhorting all men to come unto God, the Holy One of Israel,

Omni 1:47 Yea, come unto Him, and offer your whole souls as an offering unto Him, and continue in fasting and praying, and endure to the end; And as the Lord liveth, ye will be saved.

Jarom 1:1 Now behold, I, Jarom, write a few words according to the commandment of my father Enos, that our genealogy may be kept;

Jarom 1:2 And as these plates are small, and as these things are written for the intent of the benefit of our brethren the Lamanites, Wherefore, it must needs be that I write a little; But I shall not write the things of my prophesying, nor of my revelations,

Jarom 1:6 Behold, it is expedient that much should be done among this people, Because of the hardness of their hearts, and the deafness of their ears, and the blindness of their minds, and the stiffness of their necks;

Jarom 1:23 And it came to pass that the prophets of the Lord did threaten the people of Nephi according to the word of God, That if they did not keep the commandments, but should fall into transgression, they should be destroyed from off the face of the land.

Jarom 1:31 But behold, my brethren, ye can go to the other plates of Nephi, For behold, upon them the record of our wars are engraven according to the writings of the kings, or that which they caused to be written;

Jarom 1:32 And I deliver these plates into the hands of my son Omni, that they may be kept according to the commandments of my fathers.

Words of Mormon 1:9 But behold, I shall take these plates which contain these prophesyings and revelations and put them with the remainder of my record, For they are choice unto me and I know they will be choice unto my brethren;

Words of Mormon 1:12 And my prayer to God is concerning my brethren, that they may once again come to the knowledge of God, yea, the redemption of Christ, That they may once again be a delightsome people.

Words of Mormon 1:16 And I, Mormon, pray to God that they may be preserved from this time henceforth;

Words of Mormon 1:17 And I know that they will be preserved, For there are great things written upon them out of which my people and their brethren shall be judged at the great and last day, according to the word of God which is written.

Mosiah 1:3 And he caused that they should be taught in all the language of his fathers, that thereby they might become men of understanding, And that they might know concerning the prophecies which had been spoken by the mouths of their fathers, which were delivered them by the hand of the Lord.

Mosiah 1:15 Therefore, he had Mosiah brought before him; And these are the words which he spake unto him, saying: "My son, I would that ye should make a proclamation throughout all this land among all this people - or the people of Zarahemla and the people of Mosiah which dwell in this land - that thereby they may be gathered together,

Mosiah 1:17 "And moreover, I shall give this people a name that thereby they may be distinguished above all the people which the Lord God hath brought out of the Land of Jerusalem; And this I do because they have been a diligent people in keeping the commandments of the Lord;

Mosiah 1:18 And I give unto them a name that never shall be blotted out, except it be through transgression.

Mosiah 1:24 And also the sword of Laban, And the ball, or director, which led our fathers through the wilderness, which was prepared by the hand of the Lord that thereby they might be led, everyone according to the heed and diligence which they gave unto Him -

Mosiah 1:31 And also, that they might give thanks to the Lord their God who had brought them out of the Land of Jerusalem, And who had delivered them out of the hands of their enemies and had appointed just men to be their teachers, And also a just man to be their king

Mosiah 1:32 who had established peace in the Land of Zarahemla, And who had taught them to keep the commandments of God, that thereby they might rejoice and be filled with love toward God and all men.

Mosiah 1:35 For the multitude being so great that King Benjamin could not teach them all within the walls of the temple, Therefore, he caused a tower to be erected, that thereby his people might hear the words which he should speak unto them.

Mosiah 1:37 Therefore, he caused that the words which he spake should be written and sent forth among those that were not under the sound of his voice, that they might also receive his words.

Mosiah 1:38 And these are the words which he spake and caused to be written, saying: "My brethren, all ye that have assembled yourselves together, you that can hear my words which I shall speak unto you this day,

Mosiah 1:39 For I have not commanded you to come up hither to trifle with the words which I shall speak, But that you should hearken unto me and open your ears, that ye may hear, And your hearts, that ye may understand, And your minds, that the mysteries of God may be unfolded to your view.

Mosiah 1:42 "Yet as I have been chosen by this people and was consecrated by my father, And was suffered by the hand of the Lord that I should be a ruler and a king over this people, And have been kept and preserved by His matchless power to serve thee with all the might, mind and strength which the Lord hath granted unto me -

Mosiah 1:44 Neither have I suffered that ye should be confined in dungeons, Nor that ye should make slaves one of another, Or that ye should murder or plunder or steal or commit adultery;

Mosiah 1:46 "And even I, myself, have labored with mine own hands that I might serve you, And that ye should not be laden with taxes, And that there should nothing come upon you which was grievous to be borne; And of all these things which I have spoken, ye yourselves are witnesses this day.

Mosiah 1:54 I say, if ye should serve Him with all your whole soul, and yet ye would be unprofitable servants.

Mosiah 1:59 And ye are still indebted unto Him and art and will be forever and ever; Therefore, of what have ye to boast?

Mosiah 1:64 Therefore, as I said unto you that I had served you, walking with a clear conscience before God, Even so, I at this time have caused that ye should assemble yourselves together, that I might be found blameless, And that your blood should not come upon me when I shall stand to be judged of God of the things whereof He hath commanded me concerning you.

Mosiah 1:67 "And moreover, I say unto you that I have caused that ye should assemble yourselves together, that I might declare unto you that I can no longer be your teacher nor your king,

Mosiah 1:72 Even so, if ye shall keep the commandments of my son - or the commandments of God which shall be delivered unto you by him - Ye shall prosper in the land and your enemies shall have no power over you.

Mosiah 1:76 "I say unto you that there are not any among you, except it be your little children, that have not been taught concerning these things but what knoweth that ye are eternally indebted to your heavenly Father,

Mosiah 1:79 "And now I say unto you my brethren, that after ye have known and have been taught all these things, If ye should transgress and go contrary to that which hath been spoken, That ye do withdraw yourselves from the Spirit of the Lord, that it may have no place in you to guide you in wisdom's paths, that ye may be blessed, prospered and preserved -

Mosiah 1:96 'For the Lord hath heard thy prayers and hath judged of thy righteousness, And hath sent me to declare unto thee that thou mayest rejoice and that thou mayest declare unto thy people, that they may also be filled with joy.

Mosiah 1:100 'And lo, He shall suffer temptations and pain of body, hunger, thirst and fatigue, even more than man can suffer, except it be unto death;

Mosiah 1:101 For behold, blood cometh from every pore, so great shall be His anguish for the wickedness and the abominations of His people.

Mosiah 1:102 'And He shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and of earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning; And His mother shall be called Mary;

Mosiah 1:108 'But wo, wo unto him who knoweth that he rebelleth against God! For salvation cometh to none such, except it be through repentance and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.

Mosiah 1:114 'And even if it were possible that little children could sin, they could not be saved; But I say unto you, they are blessed;

Mosiah 1:116 'And moreover, I say unto you that there shall be no other name given, nor no other way nor means whereby salvation can come unto the children of men - Only in and through the name of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.

Mosiah 1:119 'For the natural man is an enemy to God and has been from the fall of Adam and will be forever and ever,

Mosiah 1:122 And behold, when that time cometh, none shall be found blameless before God, except it be little children, Only through repentance and faith on the name of the Lord God Omnipotent.

Mosiah 1:126 Whereof they shall be judged, every man according to his works, whether they be good or whether they be evil.

Mosiah 1:127 'And if they be evil, they are consigned to an awful view of their own guilt and abominations, Which doth cause them to shrink from the presence of the Lord into a state of misery and endless torment from whence they can no more return; Therefore, they have drunk damnation to their own souls.

Mosiah 2:3 And they all cried aloud with one voice, saying: "O have mercy and apply the atoning blood of Christ, that we may receive forgiveness of our sins and our hearts may be purified!

Mosiah 2:10 And also the atonement which hath been prepared from the foundation of the world, that thereby salvation might come to him that should put his trust in the Lord, And should be diligent in keeping His commandments and continue in the faith, even unto the end of his life - I mean the life of the mortal body -

Mosiah 2:11 I say that this is the man that receiveth salvation through the atonement which was prepared from the foundation of the world for all mankind, Which ever was, ever since the fall of Adam, or which is or which ever shall be, even unto the end of the world.

Mosiah 2:12 And there is none other salvation save this which hath been spoken of; Neither are there any conditions whereby man can be saved, except the conditions which I have told you:

Mosiah 2:22 "And behold, I say unto you that if ye do this, ye shall always rejoice and be filled with the love of God and always retain a remission of your sins;

Mosiah 2:35 Nay, He hath poured out His Spirit upon you, And hath caused that your hearts should be filled with joy, And hath caused that your mouths should be stopped, that ye could not find utterance, so exceeding great was your joy.

Mosiah 2:37 "And if ye judge the man who putteth up his petition to you for your substance, that he perish not, and condemn him, How much more just will be your condemnation for withholding your substance which doth not belong to you, but to God to whom also your life belongeth?

Mosiah 2:39 I say unto you, wo be unto that man! for his substance shall perish with him. "And now, I say these things unto those which are rich as pertaining to the things of this world.

Mosiah 2:45 "And again, it is expedient that he should be diligent, that thereby he might win the prize; Therefore, all things must be done in order.

Mosiah 3:6 And we are willing to enter into a covenant with our God, to do His will and to be obedient to His commandments in all things that He shall command us all the remainder of our days, That we may not bring upon ourselves a never - ending torment as has been spoken by the angel, That we may not drink out of the cup of the wrath of God."

Mosiah 3:8 "And now, because of the covenant which ye have made, ye shall be called the children of Christ, His sons and His daughters;

Mosiah 3:10 "And under this head ye are made free, And there is no other head whereby ye can be made free;

Mosiah 3:11 There is no other name given whereby salvation cometh; Therefore, I would that ye should take upon you the name of Christ - all you that have entered into the covenant with God - that ye should be obedient unto the end of your lives.

Mosiah 3:12 "And it shall come to pass that whosoever doeth this shall be found at the right hand of God, For he shall know the name by which he is called, For he shall be called by the name of Christ.

Mosiah 3:13 "And now it shall come to pass that whosoever shall not take upon them the name of Christ must be called by some other name; Therefore, he findeth himself on the left hand of God.

Mosiah 3:14 "And I would that ye should remember also that this is the name that I said I should give unto you that never should be blotted out, except it be through transgression;

Mosiah 3:15 Therefore, take heed that ye do not transgress, that the name be not blotted out of your hearts.

Mosiah 3:16 "I say unto you, I would that ye should remember to retain the name written always in your hearts, that ye are not found on the left hand of God, But that ye hear and know the voice by which ye shall be called, and also the name by which He shall call you.

Mosiah 3:20 I say unto you, that even so shall it be among you if ye know not the name by which ye are called.

Mosiah 3:21 "Therefore, I would that ye should be steadfast and immovable, always abounding in good works, That Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent, may seal you His, That you may be brought to heaven, That ye may have everlasting salvation and eternal life through the wisdom and power and justice and mercy of Him who created all things in heaven and in earth, who is God above all. Amen."

Mosiah 4:3 And again, it came to pass that when King Benjamin had made an end of all these things, And had consecrated his son Mosiah to be a ruler and a king over his people and had given him all the charges concerning the kingdom,

Mosiah 5:14 "And now for this cause have I suffered that ye should be preserved - that I might inquire of you - Or else I should have caused that my guards should have put you to death. "Ye are permitted to speak."

Mosiah 5:20 "For behold, we are in bondage to the Lamanites and are taxed with a tax which is grievous to be borne.

Mosiah 5:21 "And now behold, our brethren will deliver us out of our bondage, or out of the hands of the Lamanites, and we will be their slaves,

Mosiah 5:22 For it is better that we be slaves to the Nephites than to pay tribute to the king of the Lamanites."

Mosiah 5:27 "O ye my people, lift up your heads and be comforted; For behold, the time is at hand, or is not far distant, when we shall no longer be in subjection to our enemies, notwithstanding our many strugglings which have been in vain; Yet I trust there remaineth an effectual struggle to be made.

Mosiah 5:37 "And now, is not this grievous to be borne?

Mosiah 5:44 And because he saith unto them that Christ was the God, the Father, of all things, And saith that He should take upon Him the image of man, And it should be the image after which man was created in the beginning -

Mosiah 5:48 "For behold, the Lord hath said: 'I will not succor My people in the day of their transgression, but I will hedge up their ways, that they prosper not; And their doings shall be as a stumbling block before them.'

Mosiah 5:57 And it came to pass that he caused that the plates which contained the record of his people from the time that they left the Land of Zarahemla should be brought before Ammon, that he might read them.

Mosiah 5:69 "And I say unto thee again: Knowest thou of anyone that can translate? For I am desirous that these records should be translated into our language;

Mosiah 5:73 And the things are called interpreters; And no man can look in them except he be commanded, lest he should look for that he had not ought and he should perish,

Mosiah 5:79 And by them shall all things be revealed, or rather, shall secret things be made manifest and hidden things shall come to light, And things which are not known shall be made known by them;

Mosiah 5:80 And also things shall be made known by them which otherwise could not be known;

Mosiah 6:2 But when I saw that which was good among them, I was desirous that they should not be destroyed, Therefore, I contended with my brethren in the wilderness, for I would that our ruler should make a treaty with them.

Mosiah 6:3 But he, being an austere and a bloodthirsty man, commanded that I should be slain, but I was rescued by the shedding of much blood,

Mosiah 6:16 Therefore, it came to pass that King Laman began to stir up his people, that they should contend with my people; Therefore, there began to be wars and contentions in the land;

Mosiah 6:27 And I caused that there should be weapons of war made of every kind, That thereby I might have weapons for my people against the time the Lamanites should come up again to war against my people,

Mosiah 6:39 And it came to pass that I caused that the women and children of my people should be hid in the wilderness;

Mosiah 7:15 And he caused a breastwork to be built before them, that they might rest their bodies and their arms upon while they should speak lying and vain words to his people.

Mosiah 7:17 And it came to pass that he caused many buildings to be built in the Land Shilom;

Mosiah 7:18 And he caused a great tower to be built on the hill north of the Land Shilom which had been a resort for the children of Nephi at the time they fled out of the land.

Mosiah 7:31 Wo be unto this people! for I have seen their abominations and their wickedness and their whoredoms; And except they repent, I will visit them in Mine anger;

Mosiah 7:33 Yea, and they shall be brought into bondage; And they shall be afflicted by the hand of their enemies.

Mosiah 7:35 'And it shall come to pass that except this people repent and turn unto the Lord their God, they shall be brought into bondage; And none shall deliver them, except it be the Lord, the Almighty God.

Mosiah 7:36 'Yea, and it shall come to pass that when they shall cry unto Me, I will be slow to hear their cries; Yea, and I will suffer them that they be smitten by their enemies;

Mosiah 7:41 And he saith: "Who is Abinadi, that I and my people should be judged of him? Or who is the Lord that shall bring upon my people such great affliction?

Mosiah 7:47 Therefore, I will visit them in My anger, yea, in My fierce anger will I visit them in their iniquities and abominations; Yea, wo be unto this generation! '

Mosiah 7:48 "And the Lord said unto me: 'Stretch forth thy hand and prophesy, saying: Thus saith the Lord, it shall come to pass that this generation, because of their iniquities, shall be brought into bondage and shall be smitten on the cheek,

Mosiah 7:49 Yea, and shall be driven by men and shall be slain, And the vultures of the air and the dogs, yea, and the wild beasts shall devour their flesh.

Mosiah 7:50 'And it shall come to pass that the life of King Noah shall be valued even as a garment in a hot furnace, for he shall know that I Am the Lord.

Mosiah 7:52 Yea, and I will cause that they shall have burdens lashed upon their backs and they shall be driven before like a dumb ass.

Mosiah 7:53 'And it shall come to pass that I will send forth hail among them and it shall smite them; And they shall also be smitten with the east wind; And insects shall pester their land also and devour their grain,

Mosiah 7:54 And they shall be smitten with a great pestilence; And all this will I do because of their iniquities and abominations.

Mosiah 7:61 And he also prophesieth evil concerning thy life and saith that thy life shall be as a garment in a furnace of fire;

Mosiah 7:62 And again, he saith that thou shalt be as a stalk, even as a dry stalk of the field which is run over by the beasts and trodden underfoot;

Mosiah 7:63 And again, he saith thou shalt be as the blossoms of a thistle which, when it is fully ripe, if the wind bloweth, it is driven forth upon the face of the land; And he pretendeth the Lord hath spoken it;

Mosiah 7:65 "And now, O king, What great evil hast thou done? Or what great sins have thy people committed, That we should be condemned of God or judged of this man?

Mosiah 7:67 "And behold, we are strong; We shall not come into bondage or be taken captive by our enemies; Yea, and thou hast prospered in the land, And thou shalt also prosper.

Mosiah 7:69 And it came to pass that King Noah caused that Abinadi should be cast into prison;

Mosiah 7:72 And the king commanded that he should be brought before them,

Mosiah 7:82 "I say unto you, wo be unto you for perverting the ways of the Lord! For if ye understand these things, ye have not taught them, therefore ye have perverted the ways of the Lord;

Mosiah 7:90 "And it shall come to pass that ye shall be smitten for thine iniquities, for ye have said that ye teach the law of Moses;

Mosiah 7:94 And Abinadi saith unto them: "I know if ye keep the commandments of God, ye shall be saved;

Mosiah 7:102 Neither have I told you that which ye requested that I should tell; Therefore, God will not suffer that I shall be destroyed at this time,

Mosiah 7:109 But I finish my message and then it matters not whither I go, if it so be that I am saved;

Mosiah 7:110 But this much I tell you - What you do with me after this shall be as a type and a shadow of things which are to come.

Mosiah 7:119 'Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee;

Mosiah 8:4 I say unto you that it is expedient that ye should keep the law of Moses as yet, But I say unto you that the time shall come when it shall no more be expedient to keep the law of Moses.

Mosiah 8:6 "And now I say unto you that it was expedient that there should be a law given to the children of Israel, yea, even a very strict law, For they were a stiff-necked people, quick to do iniquity and slow to remember the Lord their God;

Mosiah 8:10 I say unto you, nay, they did not all understand the law, and this because of the hardness of their hearts, For they understood not that there could not any man be saved, except it were through the redemption of God.

Mosiah 8:14 Yea, and have they not said also that He should bring to pass the resurrection of the dead and that He, Himself, should be oppressed and afflicted?

Mosiah 8:26 He shall see of the travail of His soul and shall be satisfied; By His knowledge shall My righteous Servant justify many, For He shall bear their iniquities.

Mosiah 8:29 And because He dwelleth in flesh, He shall be called the Son of God;

Mosiah 8:32 And thus the flesh becoming subject to the Spirit, or the Son to the Father, being one God, suffereth temptation and yieldeth not to the temptation, But suffereth Himself to be mocked and scourged and cast out and disowned by His people.

Mosiah 8:33 "And after all this, and after working many mighty miracles among the children of men, He shall be led, yea, even as Isaiah said - ' As a sheep before the shearer is dumb, so He opened not His mouth ' -

Mosiah 8:34 Yea, even so He shall be led, crucified and slain, the flesh becoming subject even unto death, The will of the Son being swallowed up in the will of the Father.

Mosiah 8:40 "And now, what say ye? And who shall be His seed?

Mosiah 8:54 "But behold, the bands of death shall be broken; And the Son reigneth and hath power over the dead; Therefore, He bringeth to pass the resurrection of the dead.

Mosiah 8:55 "And there cometh a resurrection, even a first resurrection; Yea, even a resurrection of those that have been, and which are, and which shall be, Even until the resurrection of Christ, for so shall He be called.

Mosiah 8:66 "And now I say unto you, that the time shall come that the salvation of the Lord shall be declared to every nation, kindred, tongue and people;

Mosiah 8:72 "And then shall the wicked be cast out, And they shall have cause to howl and weep and wail and gnash their teeth,

Mosiah 8:82 "He is the light and the life of the world; Yea, a light that is endless, that can never be darkened; Yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death.

Mosiah 8:83 "Even this mortal shall put on immortality, And this corruption shall put on incorruption and shall be brought to stand before the bar of God, To be judged of Him according to their works, whether they be good or whether they be evil.

Mosiah 8:84 "If they be good, to the resurrection of endless life and happiness; And if they be evil, to the resurrection of endless damnation,

Mosiah 8:89 "And now, had ye not ought to tremble and repent of your sins? "And remember, only in and through Christ ye can be saved;

Mosiah 9:1 And now it came to pass that when Abinadi had finished these sayings, that the king commanded that the priests should take him and cause that he should be put to death.

Mosiah 9:4 Therefore, he began to plead with the king that he would not be angry with Abinadi, but suffer that he might depart in peace.

Mosiah 9:5 But the king was more wroth and caused that Alma should be cast out from among them and sent his servants after him, that they might slay him;

Mosiah 9:9 And after three days, having counseled with his priests, he caused that he should again be brought before him.

Mosiah 9:12 And now for this cause thou shalt be put to death, unless thou wilt recall all the words which thou hast spoken evil concerning me and my people."

Mosiah 9:19 Therefore, the king was stirred up in anger against him and he delivered him up, that he might be slain.

Mosiah 9:22 "And it will come to pass that ye shall be afflicted with all manner of diseases because of your iniquities;

Mosiah 9:23 Yea, and ye shall be smitten on every hand and shall be driven and scattered to and fro, even as a wild flock is driven by wild and ferocious beasts;

Mosiah 9:24 And in that day, ye shall be hunted and ye shall be taken by the hand of your enemies, And then ye shall suffer, as I suffer, the pains of death by fire;

Mosiah 9:29 Yea, concerning that which was to come, And also concerning the resurrection of the dead and the redemption of the people, which was to be brought to pass through the power and sufferings and death of Christ, And His resurrection and ascension into heaven.

Mosiah 9:39 "And now as ye are desirous to come into the fold of God and to be called His people, And are willing to bear one another's burdens, that they may be light,

Mosiah 9:40 Yea, and are willing to mourn with those that mourn, Yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort, And to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, That ye may be redeemed of God and be numbered with those of the first resurrection, that ye may have eternal life -

Mosiah 9:41 Now, I say unto you, if this be the desires of your hearts, What have you against being baptized in the name of the Lord as a witness before Him that ye have entered into a covenant with Him that ye will serve Him and keep His commandments, that He may pour out His Spirit more abundantly upon you?"

Mosiah 9:44 And when he had said these words, the Spirit of the Lord was upon him and he said: "Helam, I baptize thee, having authority from the Almighty God, as a testimony that ye have entered into a covenant to serve Him until you are dead, as to the mortal body; And may the Spirit of the Lord be poured out upon you, And may He grant unto you eternal life through the redemption of Christ which He hath prepared from the foundation of the world."

Mosiah 9:54 And he commanded them that there should be no contention one with another, But that they should look forward with one eye, having one faith and one baptism, Having their hearts knit together in unity and in love one toward another;

Mosiah 9:61 If he have more abundantly, he should impart more abundantly, And he that hath but little, but little should be required, And to him that hath not, should be given;

Mosiah 9:75 And now behold, the forces of the king were small, having been reduced. And there began to be a division among the remainder of the people,

Mosiah 9:76 And the lesser part began to breathe out threatenings against the king, And there began to be a great contention among them.

Mosiah 9:92 And now Limhi was desirous that his father should not be destroyed; Nevertheless, Limhi was not ignorant of the iniquities of his father, he himself being a just man.

Mosiah 9:127 Therefore, he caused a search to be made among his people.

Mosiah 9:131 "And now behold, and tell the king of these things that he may tell his people, that they may be pacified toward us, For behold, they are already preparing to come against us; And behold also, there are but few of us,

Mosiah 9:134 "And now, let us pacify the king and we fulfill the oath which we have made unto him, For it is better that we should be in bondage than that we should lose our lives; Therefore, let us put a stop to the shedding of so much blood."

Mosiah 9:141 And it came to pass that after many days the Lamanites began again to be stirred up in anger against the Nephites; And they began to come into the borders of the land round about.

Mosiah 9:142 Now they durst not slay them because of the oath which their king had made unto Limhi; But they would smite them on their cheeks and exercise authority over them, And began to put heavy burdens upon their backs and drive them as they would a dumb ass; Yea, all this was done that the word of the Lord might be fulfilled.

Mosiah 9:144 And it came to pass that the people began to murmur with the king, because of their afflictions, And they began to be desirous to go against them to battle,

Mosiah 9:153 And they did humble themselves even to the dust, subjecting themselves to the yoke of bondage, Submitting themselves to be smitten and to be driven to and fro and burdened, according to the desires of their enemies;

Mosiah 9:164 And the king having been without the gates of the city with his guard, he discovered Ammon and his brethren; And supposing them to be priests of Noah, therefore he caused that they should be taken and bound and cast into prison,

Mosiah 9:165 And had they been the priests of Noah, he would have caused that they should be put to death; But when he found that they were not, but that they were his brethren and had come from the Land of Zarahemla, he was filled with exceeding great joy.

Mosiah 9:168 And they, having supposed it to be the Land of Zarahemla, returned to the Land of Nephi, Having arrived in the borders of the land not many days before the coming of Ammon;

Mosiah 9:176 And it came to pass that King Limhi and many of his people were desirous to be baptized, but there was none in the land that had authority from God;

Mosiah 9:179 They were desirous to be baptized as a witness and a testimony that they were willing to serve God with all their hearts -

Mosiah 9:180 Nevertheless, they did prolong the time, And an account of their baptism shall be given hereafter.

Mosiah 10:6 "And now O king, if thou hast not found me to be an unprofitable servant, or if thou hast hitherto listened to my words in any degree and they have been of service to thee, Even so, I desire that thou wouldst listen to my words at this time, And I will be thy servant and deliver this people out of bondage."

Mosiah 10:10 And I will go, according to thy command, and pay the last tribute of wine to the Lamanites and they will be drunken, And we will pass through the secret pass on the left of their camp when they are drunken and asleep;

Mosiah 11:6 And it came to pass that the people were desirous that Alma should be their king, for he was beloved by his people;

Mosiah 11:8 "Nevertheless, if it were possible that ye could always have a just man to be your king, it would be well for you to have a king;

Mosiah 11:14 Yea, even out of the hands of King Noah and his people, and also from the bonds of iniquity, Even so, I desire that ye should stand fast in this liberty wherewith ye have been made free and that ye trust no man to be a king over you,

Mosiah 11:15 And also trusting no one to be your teachers nor your ministers, except he be a man of God, walking in His ways and keeping His commandments."

Mosiah 11:16 Thus did Alma teach his people that every man should love his neighbor as himself, that there should be no contention among them.

Mosiah 11:24 Nevertheless, whosoever putteth his trust in Him, the same shall be lifted up at the last day;

Mosiah 11:30 But Alma went forth and stood among them and exhorted them that they should not be frightened, But that they should remember the Lord their God and He would deliver them;

Mosiah 11:43 And the king of the Lamanites had granted unto Amulon that he should be a king and a ruler over his people which were in the Land of Helam; Nevertheless, he should have no power to do anything contrary to the will of the king of the Lamanites.

Mosiah 11:44 And it came to pass that Amulon did gain favor in the eyes of the king of the Lamanites; Therefore, the king of the Lamanites granted unto him and his brethren that they should be appointed teachers over his people,

Mosiah 11:49 And thus the language of Nephi began to be taught among all the people of the Lamanites;

Mosiah 11:52 And thus the Lamanites began to increase in riches and began to trade one with another and wax great, And began to be a cunning and a wise people as to the wisdom of the world,

Mosiah 11:58 And it came to pass that Amulon commanded them that they should stop their cries; And he put guards over them to watch them, that whosoever should be found calling upon God should be put to death.

Mosiah 11:60 And it came to pass that the voice of the Lord came to them in their afflictions, saying: "Lift up your heads and be of good comfort, for I know of the covenant which ye have made unto Me; And I will covenant with this My people and deliver them out of bondage;

Mosiah 11:65 And it came to pass that so great was their faith and their patience that the voice of the Lord came unto them again, saying: "Be of good comfort, for on the morrow I will deliver thee out of bondage."

Mosiah 11:77 And now King Mosiah caused that all the people should be gathered together.

Mosiah 11:81 And it came to pass that Mosiah did read, and caused to be read, the records of Zeniff to his people, Yea, he read the records of the people of Zeniff from the time they left the Land of Zarahemla until the time they returned again;

Mosiah 11:89 And they would no longer be called by the names of their fathers; Therefore, they took upon themselves the name of Nephi, that they might be called the children of Nephi and be numbered among those which were called Nephites.

Mosiah 11:94 And it came to pass that after Alma had taught the people many things and had made an end of speaking to them, that King Limhi was desirous that he might be baptized, And all his people were desirous that they might be baptized also;

Mosiah 11:98 Now this was done because there were so many people that they could not all be governed by one teacher, Neither could they all hear the word of God in one assembly; Therefore, they did assemble themselves together in different bodies, being called churches,

Mosiah 11:108 And they would not be baptized, neither would they join the church;

Mosiah 11:112 Therefore, it became expedient that those who committed sin that were in the church should be admonished by the church.

Mosiah 11:116 Now there had not any such thing happened before in the church; Therefore, Alma was troubled in his spirit and he caused that they should be brought before the king.

Mosiah 11:119 But King Mosiah saith unto Alma: "Behold, I judge them not; Therefore, I deliver them into thy hands to be judged."

Mosiah 11:124 And blessed art thou because thou hast established a church among this people, And they shall be established and they shall be My people;

Mosiah 11:125 Yea, blessed is this people which are willing to bear My name, for in My name shall they be called and they are Mine;

Mosiah 11:128 And he that will hear My voice shall be My sheep, And him shall ye receive into the church, And him will I also receive,

Mosiah 11:129 For behold, this is My church. "Whosoever that is baptized shall be baptized unto repentance,

Mosiah 11:134 And then shall they know that I Am the Lord their God, that I Am their Redeemer, but they would not be redeemed;

Mosiah 11:141 "Now I say unto you, Go, And whosoever will not repent of his sins, the same shall not be numbered among My people; And this shall be observed from this time forward."

Mosiah 11:153 And there was a strict command throughout all the churches that there should be no persecutions among them, That there should be an equality among all men, That they should let no pride nor haughtiness disturb their peace,

Mosiah 11:156 And there began to be much peace again in the land; And the people began to be very numerous and began to scatter abroad upon the face of the earth,

Mosiah 11:168 For he hath prayed with much faith concerning thee, that thou mightest be brought to the knowledge of the truth;

Mosiah 11:169 Therefore, for this purpose have I come to convince thee of the power and authority of God, that the prayers of His servants might be answered according to their faith.

Mosiah 11:175 "And now I say unto thee, Alma, Go thy way and seek to destroy the church no more, that their prayers may be answered; And this even if thou wilt of thyself be cast off."

Mosiah 11:182 And he caused that a multitude should be gathered together, that they might witness what the Lord had done for his son, and also for those that were with him;

Mosiah 11:184 And also that his limbs might receive their strength, That the eyes of the people might be opened to see and know of the goodness and glory of God.

Mosiah 11:185 And it came to pass after they had fasted and prayed for the space of two days and two nights, the limbs of Alma received their strength; And he stood up and began to speak unto them, bidding them to be of good comfort.

Mosiah 11:187 "And the Lord said unto me: ' Marvel not that all mankind - yea, men and women, all nations, kindreds, tongues and people - must be born again,

Mosiah 11:189 "I say unto you, unless this be the case, they must be cast off; And this I know because I was like to be cast off.

Mosiah 11:197 Yea, even at the last day when all men shall stand to be judged of Him, then shall they confess that He is God;

Mosiah 12:3 And that perhaps they might cure them of their hatred toward the Nephites, That they might also be brought to rejoice in the Lord their God,

Mosiah 12:4 That they might become friendly to one another and that there should be no more contentions in all the land which the Lord their God hath given them.

Mosiah 12:5 Now they were desirous that salvation should be declared to every creature, for they could not bear that any human soul should perish;

Mosiah 12:8 And the Lord saw fit in His infinite mercy to spare them; Nevertheless, they suffered much anguish of soul because of their iniquities, And suffering much, fearing that they should be cast off forever.

Mosiah 12:16 And after having translated and caused to be written the records which were on the plates of gold which had been found by the people of Limhi, which were delivered to him by the hand of Limhi -

Mosiah 12:26 And this account shall be written hereafter; For behold, it is expedient that all people should know the things which are written in this account -

Mosiah 13:3 Now when Mosiah had done this, he sent out through all the land, among all the people, desiring to know their will concerning who should be their king.

Mosiah 13:4 And it came to pass that the voice of the people came, saying: "We are desirous that Aaron, thy son, should be our king and our ruler."

Mosiah 13:9 "And now if there should be another appointed in his stead, behold, I fear there would rise contentions among you;

Mosiah 13:10 And who knoweth but what my son, to whom the kingdom doth belong, should turn to be angry and draw away a part of this people after him, which would cause wars and contentions among you, which would be the cause of shedding much blood and perverting the way of the Lord, Yea, and destroy the souls of much people.

Mosiah 13:11 "Now I say unto you, let us be wise and consider these things, for we have no right to destroy my son, Neither should we have any right to destroy another, if he should be appointed in his stead;

Mosiah 13:13 "And now, let us be wise and look forward to these things and do that which will make for the peace of this people;

Mosiah 13:14 Therefore, I will be your king the remainder of my days;

Mosiah 13:15 Nevertheless, let us appoint judges to judge this people according to our law; And we will newly arrange the affairs of this people, for we will appoint wise men to be judges that will judge this people according to the commandments of God.

Mosiah 13:16 "Now it is better that a man should be judged of God than of man, for the judgments of God are always just, But the judgments of man are not always just;

Mosiah 13:17 Therefore, if it were possible that ye could have just men to be your kings which would establish the laws of God and judge this people according to His commandments, Yea, if ye could have men for your kings which would do even as my father Benjamin did for this people, I say unto you, if this could always be the case, then it would be expedient that ye should always have kings to rule over you.

Mosiah 13:19 That there should be no wars, nor contentions, no stealing, nor plundering, nor murdering, nor no manner of iniquity;

Mosiah 13:22 For behold, how much iniquity doth one wicked king cause to be committed! Yea, and what great destruction!

Mosiah 13:28 "And behold now I say unto you, ye cannot dethrone an iniquitous king, save it be through much contention and the shedding of much blood;

Mosiah 13:30 And he enacteth laws and sendeth them forth among his people, Yea, laws after the manner of his own wickedness; And whosoever doth not obey his laws, he causeth to be destroyed,

Mosiah 13:34 Therefore, choose you by the voice of this people, judges, that ye may be judged according to the laws which hath been given you by our fathers, which are correct, And which were given them by the hand of the Lord.

Mosiah 13:39 "And now if ye have judges, and they do not judge you according to the law which has been given, ye can cause that they may be judged of a higher judge;

Mosiah 13:40 If your higher judges doth not judge righteous judgments, ye shall cause that a small number of your lower judges should be gathered together and they shall judge your higher judges, according to the voice of the people;

Mosiah 13:42 "And I command you to do these things and that ye have no king, That if these people commit sins and iniquities, they shall be answered upon their own heads;

Mosiah 13:44 "And now I desire that this inequality should be no more in this land, especially among this my people;

Mosiah 13:45 But I desire that this land be a land of liberty, And every man may enjoy his rights and privileges alike, so long as the Lord seeth fit that we may live and inherit the land,

Mosiah 13:49 And he told them that these things had not ought to be, But that the burden should come upon all the people, that every man might bear his part.

Mosiah 13:51 Yea, all his iniquities and abominations, And all the wars and contentions and bloodshed, And the stealing and the plundering, And the committing of whoredoms and all manner of iniquities which cannot be enumerated -

Mosiah 13:52 Telling them that these things ought not to be, that they were expressly repugnant to the commandments of God.

Mosiah 13:56 Therefore, it came to pass that they assembled themselves together in bodies throughout the land to cast in their voices concerning who should be their judges, to judge them according to the law which had been given them.

Mosiah 13:60 For he had not exacted riches of them, neither had he delighted in the shedding of blood, But he had established peace in the land and he had granted unto his people that they should be delivered from all manner of bondage;

Mosiah 13:63 And it came to pass that Alma was appointed to be the chief judge, he being also the high priest, his father having conferred the office upon him and had given him the charge concerning all the affairs of the church.

Alma 1:3 And it came to pass that in the first year of the reign of Alma in the judgment seat, there was a man brought before him to be judged, A man which was large and was noted for his much strength.

Alma 1:4 And he had gone about among the people preaching to them that which he termed to be the word of God, bearing down against the church,

Alma 1:5 Declaring unto the people that every priest and teacher had ought to become popular, And they ought not to labor with their own hands, but that they had ought to be supported by the people.

Alma 1:6 And he also testified unto the people that all mankind should be saved at the last day and that they need not fear nor tremble, but that they might lift up their heads and rejoice;

Alma 1:9 And he began to be lifted up in the pride of his heart and to wear very costly apparel, Yea, and even began to establish a church after the manner of his preaching.

Alma 1:15 And the man who slew him was taken by the people of the church and was brought before Alma to be judged according to the crime which he had committed.

Alma 1:18 "And behold, thou art not only guilty of priestcraft, but hast endeavored to enforce it by the sword; And were priestcraft to be enforced among this people, it would prove their entire destruction.

Alma 1:31 Now there was a strict law among the people of the church that there should not any man belonging to the church arise and persecute those that did not belong to the church, And that there should be no persecution among themselves;

Alma 1:32 Nevertheless, there were many among them who began to be proud and began to contend warmly with their adversaries, even unto blows, Yea, they would smite one another with their fists.

Alma 1:43 And now because of the steadiness of the church, they began to be exceeding rich, having abundance of all things whatsoever they stood in need -

Alma 1:53 And it came to pass in the commencement of the fifth year of their reign there began to be a contention among the people, For a certain man, being called Amlici - He being a very cunning man, yea, a wise man as to the wisdom of the world, He being after the order of the man that slew Gideon by the sword who was executed according to the law -

Alma 1:54 Now this Amlici had, by his cunning, drawn away much people after him, even so much that they began to be very powerful; And they began to endeavor to establish Amlici to be a king over the people.

Alma 1:56 For they knew that according to their law, that such things must be established by the voice of the people;

Alma 1:62 And it came to pass that they gathered themselves together and did consecrate Amlici to be their king.

Alma 1:82 And except we make haste, they obtain possession of our city, and our fathers and our wives and our children be slain."

Alma 1:88 And it came to pass that Alma, he being a man of God, being exercised with much faith, And he cried, saying: "O Lord, have mercy and spare my life, that I may be an instrument in Thy hands to save and protect this people!"

Alma 1:93 And it came to pass that when they had all crossed the River Sidon, that the Lamanites and the Amlicites began to flee before them, notwithstanding they were so numerous that they could not be numbered;

Alma 1:106 And this was done that their seed might be distinguished from the seed of their brethren, that thereby the Lord God might preserve His people, that they might not mix and believe in incorrect traditions which would prove their destruction.

Alma 1:108 Therefore, whomsoever suffered himself to be led away by the Lamanites were called under that head and there was a mark set upon him.

Alma 1:113 "Behold, the Lamanites have I cursed; And I will set a mark upon them, that they and their seed may be separated from thee and thy seed from this time, henceforth and forever, except they repent of their wickedness and turn to me, that I may have mercy upon them.

Alma 1:114 "And again, I will set a mark upon him that mingleth his seed with thy brethren, that they may be cursed also.

Alma 1:116 "And again I say, he that departeth from thee shall no more be called thy seed; And I will bless thee, etc., and whomsoever shall be called thy seed, henceforth and forever." And these were the promises of the Lord unto Nephi and to his seed.

Alma 1:128 That they might reap their rewards according to their works - whether they were good or whether they were bad, To reap eternal happiness or eternal misery according to the spirit which he listed to obey - whether it be a good spirit or a bad one;

Alma 1:129 For every man receiveth wages of him who he listeth to obey, And this according to the words of the spirit of prophecy; Therefore, let it be according to the truth.

Alma 2:11 Now this was the cause of much affliction to Alma, yea, and to many of the people which Alma had consecrated to be teachers and priests and elders over the church;

Alma 2:12 Yea, many of them were sorely grieved for the wickedness which they saw had begun to be among their people,

Alma 2:13 For they saw and beheld with great sorrow that the people of the church began to be lifted up in the pride of their eyes and to set their hearts upon riches and upon the vain things of the world,

Alma 2:14 That they began to be scornful, one toward another, And they began to persecute those that did not believe, according to their own will and pleasure.

Alma 2:15 And thus in this eighth year of the reign of the judges there began to be great contentions among the people of the church;

Alma 2:22 And now it came to pass that Alma, having seen the afflictions of the humble followers of God and the persecutions which were heaped upon them by the remainder of his people, and seeing all their inequality, He began to be very sorrowful; Nevertheless, the Spirit of the Lord did not fail him.

Alma 3:3 "I, Alma, having been consecrated by my father Alma to be a high priest over the church of God, he having power and authority from God to do these things, Behold, I say unto you that he began to establish a church in the land which was in the borders of Nephi -

Alma 3:31 Do you look forward with an eye of faith and view this mortal body raised in immortality? And this corruption raised in incorruption, to stand before God to be judged according to the deeds which hath been done in the mortal body?

Alma 3:39 "I say unto you, ye will know at that day that ye cannot be saved, For there can no man be saved except his garments are washed white;

Alma 3:40 Yea, his garments must be purified until they are cleansed from all stain through the blood of Him of whom it hath been spoken by our fathers which should come to redeem His people from their sins.

Alma 3:45 "I say unto you, nay, except ye make our Creator a liar from the beginning, or suppose that He is a liar from the beginning; Or also, ye cannot suppose that such an one can have place in the kingdom of heaven, But they shall be cast out, for they are the children of the kingdom of the devil.

Alma 3:55 Wo unto such an one! for he is not prepared, And the time is at hand that he must repent or he cannot be saved;

Alma 3:59 Yea, come unto Me and bring forth works of righteousness and ye shall not be hewn down and cast into the fire.

Alma 3:86 Yea, to preach unto all - both old and young, both bond and free; Yea, I say unto you - the aged and also the middle aged, and the rising generation - Yea, to cry unto them that they must repent and be born again.

Alma 3:90 "And again I say unto you, the Spirit saith: 'Behold, the axe is laid at the root of the tree; Therefore, every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit shall be hewn down and cast into the fire, Yea, a fire which cannot be consumed, even an unquenchable fire.'

Alma 3:93 Yea, can ye be puffed up in the pride of your hearts? Yea, will ye still persist in the wearing of costly apparel and setting your hearts upon the vain things of the world, upon your riches?

Alma 3:97 "And finally, all ye that will persist in your wickedness, I say unto you that these are they which shall be hewn down and cast into the fire except they speedily repent.

Alma 3:98 "And now I say unto you, all you that are desirous to follow the voice of the Good Shepherd: Come ye out from the wicked! and be ye separate! and touch not their unclean things!

Alma 3:99 "And behold, their names shall be blotted out, that the names of the wicked shall not be numbered among the names of the righteous, that the word of God may be fulfilled which saith: 'The names of the wicked shall not be mingled with the names of My people,

Alma 3:100 For the names of the righteous shall be written in the Book of Life, And unto them will I grant an inheritance at My right hand.'

Alma 3:102 I say unto you, if ye speak against it, it matters not, for the word of God must be fulfilled;

Alma 3:106 And He commandeth you that ye suffer no ravenous wolf to enter among you, that ye may not be destroyed.

Alma 3:108 I speak by way of command unto you that belong to the church."And unto those which do not belong to the church, I speak by way of invitation, saying, Come and be baptized unto repentance that ye also may be partakers of the fruit of the tree of life."

Alma 5:6 But, blessed be the name of God! that He hath given unto me to know, yea, hath given unto me the exceeding great joy of knowing that they are established again in the way of His righteousness;

Alma 5:13 For behold, I say unto you, there be many things to come; And behold, there is one thing which is of more importance than they all.

Alma 5:15 Behold, I do not say that He will come among us at the time of His dwelling in His mortal tabernacle, For behold, the Spirit hath not said unto me that this should be the case;

Alma 5:19 And behold, He shall be born of Mary at Jerusalem, which is the land of our forefathers, She being a virgin, a precious and chosen vessel, who shall be overshadowed and conceive by the power of the Holy Ghost, And bring forth a son, yea, even the Son of God.

Alma 5:21 And this that the word might be fulfilled which saith He will take upon Him the pains and the sicknesses of His people; And He will take upon Him death, that He may loose the bands of death which bind His people;

Alma 5:22 And He will take upon Him their infirmities, that His bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, That He may know, according to the flesh, how to succor His people according to their infirmities.

Alma 5:24 Now I say unto you, that ye must repent and be born again, For the Spirit saith: "If ye are not born again, ye cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven."

Alma 5:25 Therefore, come and be baptized unto repentance, that ye may be washed from your sins, That ye may have faith on the Lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world, which is mighty to save and to cleanse from all unrighteousness.

Alma 5:36 And He doth not dwell in unholy temples; Neither can filthiness or anything which is unclean be received into the kingdom of God.

Alma 5:37 Therefore I say unto you, the time shall come, yea, and it shall be at the last day, that he which is filthy shall remain in his filthiness.

Alma 5:39 And now, I would that ye should be humble, and be submissive and gentle, easy to be entreated, full of patience and longsuffering, Being temperate in all things, Being diligent in keeping the commandments of God at all times,

Alma 5:42 And may the Lord bless you and keep your garments spotless, That ye may at last be brought to sit down with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the holy prophets which have been ever since the world began, Having your garments spotless, even as their garments are spotless, In the kingdom of heaven, to go no more out.

Alma 6:1 And now it came to pass that Alma returned from the Land of Gideon after having taught the people of Gideon many things which cannot be written, Having established the order of the church according as he had before done in the Land of Zarahemla;

Alma 6:16 Now when the people had said this and had withstood all his words and reviled him and spit upon him and caused that he should be cast out of their city, And he departed thence and took his journey toward the city which was called Aaron.

Alma 6:27 Therefore, go with me into my house and I will impart unto thee of my favor; And I know that thou will be a blessing unto me and my house."

Alma 6:39 And they had power given unto them, insomuch that they could not be confined in dungeons, Neither were it possible that any man could slay them;

Alma 7:4 And they saith also: "We will not believe thy words if thou shouldst prophesy that this great city should be destroyed in one day."

Alma 7:16 And again, it is said that: 'Inasmuch as ye will not keep My commandments, ye shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord.'

Alma 7:19 "Nevertheless, I say unto you that it shall be more tolerable for them in the day of judgment than for you, if ye remain in your sins,

Alma 7:21 "For it is because of the traditions of their fathers that causes them to remain in their state of ignorance, Therefore, the Lord will be merciful unto them and prolong their existence in the land;

Alma 7:22 And at some period of time they will be brought to believe in His word and to know of the incorrectness of the traditions of their fathers;

Alma 7:23 And many of them will be saved, for the Lord will be merciful unto all who call on His name.

Alma 7:24 "But behold, I say unto you that if ye persist in your wickedness, that your days shall not be prolonged in the land, for the Lamanites shall be sent upon you;

Alma 7:25 And if ye repent not, they shall come in a time when you know not and ye shall be visited with utter destruction;

Alma 7:26 And it shall be according to the fierce anger of the Lord, For He will not suffer you that ye shall live in your iniquities to destroy His people.

Alma 7:34 And they having been waxed strong in battle that they might not be destroyed, Having been brought out of bondage time after time, And having been kept and preserved until now; And they have been prospered until they are rich in all manner of things.

Alma 7:36 I say unto you, that if this be the case - that if they should fall into transgressions, That it would be far more tolerable for the Lamanites than for them.

Alma 7:38 For hath not the Lord expressly promised and firmly decreed that if ye will rebel against Him, that ye shall utterly be destroyed from off the face of the earth?

Alma 7:39 "And now for this cause - that ye may not be destroyed - the Lord hath sent His angel to visit many of His people, declaring unto them that they must go forth and cry mightily unto this people, saying: ' Repent ye, repent ye! for the kingdom of heaven is nigh at hand;

Alma 7:40 And not many days hence, the Son of God shall come in His glory; And His glory shall be the glory of the Only Begotten of the Father, Full of grace, equity and truth, Full of patience, mercy and longsuffering, Quick to hear the cries of His people and to answer their prayers.

Alma 7:41 'And behold, He cometh to redeem those who will be baptized unto repentance through faith on His name.

Alma 7:46 "And now my beloved brethren, for ye are my brethren and ye had ought to be beloved, And ye had ought to bring forth works which are meet for repentance, Seeing that your hearts have been grossly hardened against the word of God and seeing that ye are a lost and a fallen people."

Alma 8:18 And now when Amulek had spoken these words, the people began to be astonished, Seeing there was more than one witness which testified of the things whereof they were accused, and also of the things which were to come, according to the spirit of prophecy which was in them.

Alma 8:20 That they might be judged according to the law, And that they might be slain or cast into prison according to the crime which they could make appear, or witness against them.

Alma 8:22 Now these lawyers were learned in all the arts and cunning of the people; And this was to enable them that they might be skillful in their profession.

Alma 8:27 "Yea, well did Mosiah say, who was our last king, when he was about to deliver up the kingdom - having no one to confer it upon, causing that this people should be governed by their own voices -

Alma 8:28 Yea, well did he say, that if the time should come that the voice of this people should choose iniquity, That is, if the time should come that this people should fall into transgression, they would be ripe for destruction.

Alma 8:31 "Yea, and I say unto you that if it were not for the prayers of the righteous which are now in the land, that ye would even now be visited with utter destruction;

Alma 8:32 Yet it would not be by flood, as were the people in the days of Noah, but it would be by famine and by pestilence and the sword;

Alma 8:34 Then ye shall be smitten by famine and by pestilence and by the sword; And the time is soon at hand except ye repent."

Alma 8:40 "And now behold, I say unto you that the foundation of the destruction of this people is beginning to be laid by the unrighteousness of your lawyers and your judges."

Alma 8:48 Now it was in the law of Mosiah that every man which was a judge of the law, or which were appointed to be judges, should receive wages according to the time which they labored to judge those which were brought before them to be judged.

Alma 8:50 And the judge executed authority and sent forth officers that the man should be brought before him;

Alma 8:51 And he judgeth the man according to the law and the evidences which are brought against him; And thus the man is compelled to pay that which he oweth, or be striped, or be cast out from among the people as a thief and a robber.

Alma 8:69 And Amulek saith unto him: "Yea, I will, if it be according to the Spirit of the Lord which is in me, for I shall say nothing which is contrary to the Spirit of the Lord."

Alma 8:92 Therefore, how can ye be saved except ye inherit the kingdom of heaven? Therefore, ye cannot be saved in your sins."

Alma 8:97 "Therefore, the wicked remain as though there had been no redemption made, except it be the loosing of the bands of death.

Alma 8:98 "For behold, the day cometh that all shall rise from the dead and stand before God and be judged according to their works.

Alma 8:99 "Now there is a death which is called temporal death; And the death of Christ shall loose the bands of this temporal death, that all shall be raised from this temporal death;

Alma 8:100 The spirit and the body shall be reunited again in its perfect form; Both limb and joint shall be restored to its proper frame, even as we now are at this time;

Alma 8:101 And we shall be brought to stand before God, knowing even as we know now, and have a bright recollection of all our guilt.

Alma 8:103 And even there shall not so much as a hair of their heads be lost, But all things shall be restored to its perfect frame, as it is now, or in the body,

Alma 8:104 And shall be brought and be arraigned before the bar of Christ the Son and God the Father and the Holy Spirit, which is one Eternal God, To be judged according to their works, whether they be good or whether they be evil.

Alma 8:106 I say unto you that this mortal body is raised to an immortal body, That is, from death, even from the first death unto life, that they can die no more, Their spirits uniting with their bodies, never to be divided,

Alma 8:108 Now, when Amulek had finished these words, the people began again to be astonished, and also Zeezrom began to tremble.

Alma 9:14 And he saith unto Alma: "What does this mean which Amulek hath spoken concerning the resurrection of the dead, That all shall rise from the dead, both the just and the unjust, and are brought to stand before God to be judged according to their works?"

Alma 9:21 Now this is what is meant by the chains of hell. "And Amulek hath spoken plainly concerning death, And being raised from this mortality to a state of immortality, And being brought before the bar of God to be judged according to our works.

Alma 9:22 "Then if our hearts have been hardened, yea, if we have hardened our hearts against the word insomuch that it hath not been found in us, Then will our state be awful, for then we shall be condemned;

Alma 9:23 For our work will condemn us, yea, all our work will condemn us - We shall not be found spotless;

Alma 9:25 And we would fain be glad if we could command the rocks and the mountains to fall upon us to hide us from His presence.

Alma 9:26 "But this cannot be; We must come forth and stand before Him in His glory and in His power and in His might, majesty and dominion, And acknowledge to our everlasting shame that all His judgments are just,

Alma 9:30 "Then is the time when their torments shall be as a lake of fire and brimstone whose flames ascendeth up forever and ever.

Alma 9:31 "And then is the time that they shall be chained down to an everlasting destruction according to the power and captivity of Satan, he having subjected them according to his will.

Alma 9:32 "Then, I say unto you, they shall be as though there had been no redemption made, For they cannot be redeemed according to God's justice, And they cannot die, seeing there is no more corruption."

Alma 9:33 Now it came to pass that when Alma had made an end of speaking these words, the people began to be more astonished;

Alma 9:34 But there was one, Antionah, who was a chief ruler among them, came forth and said unto him: "What is this that thou hast said, that man should rise from the dead and be changed from this mortal to an immortal state, that the soul can never die?

Alma 9:53 For on such the plan of redemption could have no power, for the works of justice could not be destroyed according to the supreme goodness of God.

Alma 10:17 Behold, the scriptures are before you; If ye will wrest them, it shall be to your own destruction."

Alma 10:25 Would to God that it might be in my day, but let it be sooner or later, in it I will rejoice.

Alma 10:26 "And it shall be made known unto just and holy men by the mouth of angels at the time of His coming, That the words of our fathers might be fulfilled according to that which they have spoken concerning Him, which was according to the spirit of prophecy which was in them.

Alma 10:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord and call on His holy name and watch and pray continually, That ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear; And thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all longsuffering, having faith on the Lord,

Alma 10:29 having a hope that ye shall receive eternal life, having the love of God always in your hearts, That ye may be lifted up at the last day and enter into His rest.

Alma 10:30 "And may the Lord grant unto you repentance, That ye may not bring down His wrath upon you, That ye may not be bound down by the chains of hell, That ye may not suffer the second death."

Alma 10:41 And his soul began to be harrowed up under a consciousness of his own guilt, Yea, he began to be encircled about by the pains of hell.

Alma 10:45 And they brought their wives and children together, And whosoever have believed, or had been taught to believe in the word of God, they caused that they should be cast into the fire;

Alma 10:46 And they also brought forth their records which contained the holy scriptures and cast them into the fire also, that they might be burned and destroyed by fire.

Alma 10:51 And He doth suffer that they may do this thing, or that the people may do this thing unto them according to the hardness of their hearts, that the judgments which He shall exercise upon them in His wrath may be just;

Alma 10:54 And Alma saith: "Be it according to the will of the Lord; But behold, our work is not finished, therefore, they burn us not."

Alma 10:56 And he smote them with his hand upon their cheeks and saith unto them: "After what ye have seen, will ye preach again unto this people that they shall be cast into a lake of fire and brimstone?

Alma 10:60 And it came to pass that Alma and Amulek answered him nothing; And he smote them again and delivered them to the officers to be cast into prison.

Alma 10:90 And this great sin, and his many other sins, did harrow up his mind until it did become exceeding sore, having no deliverance; Therefore, he began to be scorched with a burning heat.

Alma 10:97 And Alma saith: "If thou believest in the redemption of Christ, thou canst be healed."

Alma 10:103 And Alma established a church in the Land of Sidom, And consecrated priests and teachers in the land to baptize unto the Lord whosoever were desirous to be baptized.

Alma 10:109 And began to assemble themselves together at their sanctuaries to worship God before the altar, Watching and praying continually that they might be delivered from Satan and from death and from destruction -

Alma 11:26 And there was no inequality among them, For the Lord did pour out His Spirit on all the face of the land for to prepare the minds of the children of men - or to prepare their hearts to receive the word which should be taught among them at the time of His coming -

Alma 11:27 That they might not be hardened against the word, That they might not be unbelieving and go on to destruction,

Alma 11:28 But that they might receive the word with joy and, as a branch, be grafted into the True Vine, That they might enter into the rest of the Lord their God.

Alma 11:29 Now those priests which did go forth among the people did preach against all lyings and deceivings and envyings and strifes and malice and revilings and stealing, robbing, plundering, murdering, committing adultery and all manner of lasciviousness, Crying that these things ought not so to be;

Alma 12:15 That they might be an instrument in the hands of God to bring, if it were possible, their brethren the Lamanites to the knowledge of the truth,

Alma 12:17 And it came to pass that the Lord did visit them with His Spirit and said unto them: "Be comforted"; And they were comforted.

Alma 12:19 Yet ye shall be patient in longsuffering and afflictions, that ye may show forth good examples unto them in Me, And I will make an instrument of thee in My hands unto the salvation of many souls."

Alma 12:35 And it came to pass that King Lamoni was much pleased with Ammon and caused that his bands should be loosed; And he would that Ammon should take one of his daughters to wife.

Alma 12:36 But Ammon saith unto him: "Nay, but I will be thy servant"; Therefore, Ammon became a servant to King Lamoni.

Alma 12:44 Now these were the thoughts of Ammon when he saw the affliction of those which he termed to be his brethren.

Alma 12:45 And it came to pass that he flattered them by his words, saying: "My brethren, be of good cheer and let us go in search of the flocks, And we will gather them together and bring them back unto the place of water,

Alma 12:53 And thus he slew a certain number of them insomuch that they began to be astonished at his power;

Alma 12:57 For he did withstand their blows by smiting their arms with the edge of his sword, insomuch that they began to be astonished and began to flee before him,

Alma 12:65 And they answered the king and said: "Whether he be the Great Spirit or a man, we know not; But this much we do know, that he cannot be slain by the enemies of the king,

Alma 12:67 And now, O king, we do not believe that a man hath such great power, for we know that he cannot be slain."

Alma 12:83 And one of the king's servants said unto him: "Rabbanah"-which is, being interpreted, "powerful" or "great king, " considering their kings to be powerful -

Alma 12:112 Ammon saith unto him: "I am a man, And man in the beginning was created after the image of God; And I am called by His Holy Spirit to teach these things unto this people, that they may be brought to a knowledge of that which is just and true;

Alma 12:131 And some say that he is not dead, But others say that he is dead and that he stinketh and that he ought to be placed in the sepulcher; But as for myself, to me he doth not stink."

Alma 12:139 And she said unto him: "I have had no witness, save thy word and the word of our servants, Nevertheless, I believe that it shall be according as thou hast said."

Alma 12:142 And it came to pass that he arose according to the words of Ammon; And as he arose, he stretched forth his hand unto the woman and said: "Blessed be the name of God! and blessed art thou,

Alma 12:143 For as sure as thou livest, behold, I have seen my Redeemer! And He shall come forth and be born of a woman, And He shall redeem all mankind who believe on His name."

Alma 12:161 Now we see that Ammon could not be slain, for the Lord had said unto Mosiah, his father: "I will spare him and it shall be unto him according to thy faith"; Therefore, Mosiah trusted him unto the Lord.

Alma 12:163 And they began to marvel again among themselves what could be the cause of this great power, or what all these things could mean.

Alma 12:167 And they said that it was this Great Spirit which had destroyed so many of their brethren, the Lamanites; And thus the contention began to be exceeding sharp among them.

Alma 12:168 And while they were thus contending, the woman servant, which had caused the multitude to be gathered together, came; And when she saw the contention which was among the multitude, she was exceeding sorrowful, even unto tears.

Alma 12:187 And Ammon saith unto him: "No one hath told me, save it be God; And He said unto me: 'Go and deliver thy brethren, for they are in prison in the Land of Middoni.'"

Alma 12:202 For behold, he hath repented of his sins; But if thou shouldst fall at this time in thine anger, thy soul could not be saved.

Alma 12:207 But Ammon raised his sword and said unto him: "Behold, I will smite thee except thou wilt grant unto me that my brethren may be cast out of prison."

Alma 12:209 Now when Ammon saw that he had wrought upon the old king according to his desire, he saith unto him: "If thou wilt grant that my brethren may be cast out of prison, and also that Lamoni may retain his kingdom, And that ye be not displeased with him, but grant that he may do according to his own desires in whatsoever thing he thinketh, And then will I spare thee; Otherwise, I will smite thee to the earth."

Alma 12:213 "And I will also grant unto thee that thy brethren may be cast out of prison and thou and thy brethren may come unto me in my kingdom, for I shall greatly desire to see thee."

Alma 13:13 Now Aaron began to open the scripture unto them concerning the coming of Christ, and also concerning the resurrection of the dead, And that there could be no redemption for mankind save it were through the death and sufferings of Christ and the atonement of His blood.

Alma 13:21 And they went forth whithersoever they were led by the Spirit of the Lord, preaching the word of God in every synagogue of the Amalekites, or in every assembly of the Lamanites where they could be admitted.

Alma 13:24 And King Lamoni would not suffer that Ammon should serve him or be his servant; But he caused that there should be synagogues built in the Land of Ishmael, And he caused that his people, or the people which were under his reign, should assemble themselves together;

Alma 13:32 And it came to pass that he went in unto him, into the king's palace with his brethren, and bowed himself before the king and said unto him: "Behold, O king, we are the brethren of Ammon whom thou hast delivered out of prison; And now, O king, if thou wilt spare our lives, we will be thy servants."

Alma 13:33 And the king saith unto them: "Arise, for I will grant unto you your lives, And I will not suffer that ye shall be my servants, but I will insist that ye shall administer unto me;

Alma 13:37 And also, what is this that Ammon said, ' If ye will repent, ye shall be saved, And if ye will not repent, ye shall be cast off at the last day '?"

Alma 13:47 And that He breaketh the bands of death, that the grave shall have no victory, And that the sting of death should be swallowed up in the hopes of glory; And Aaron did expound all these things unto the king.

Alma 13:49 Yea, what shall I do that I may be born of God, having this wicked spirit rooted out of my breast, And receive His Spirit, that I may be filled with joy, that I may not be cast off at the last day?"

Alma 13:53 And if there is a God and if Thou art God, wilt Thou make Thyself known unto me? And I will give away all my sins to know Thee and that I may be raised from the dead and be saved at the last day!"

Alma 13:61 Now when Aaron saw the determination of the queen - and he also, knowing the hardness of the hearts of the people, feared lest that a multitude should assemble themselves together and there should be a great contention and a disturbance among them -

Alma 13:65 Now there was a multitude gathered together because of the commandment of the queen; And there began to be great murmurings among them because of Aaron and his brethren,

Alma 14:1 Behold, now it came to pass that the king of the Lamanites sent a proclamation among all his people that they should not lay their hands on Ammon or Aaron or Omner or Himni, Nor neither of their brethren which should go forth preaching the word of God in whatsoever place they should be, in any part of their land.

Alma 14:5 Therefore, he sent this proclamation throughout the land unto his people that the word of God might have no obstruction, But that it might go forth throughout all the land that his people might be convinced concerning the wicked traditions of their fathers,

Alma 14:6 And that they might be convinced that they were all brethren, And that they had not ought to murder, nor to plunder, nor to steal, nor to commit adultery, nor to commit any manner of wickedness.

Alma 14:17 And now it came to pass that the king and those people which were converted were desirous that they might have a name, that thereby they might be distinguished from their brethren,

Alma 14:18 Therefore, the king consulted with Aaron and many of their priests concerning the name that they should take upon them, that they might be distinguished;

Alma 14:20 And they began to be a very industrious people, Yea, and they were friendly with the Nephites, Therefore, they did open a correspondence with them and the curse of God did no more follow them.

Alma 14:22 And their hatred became exceeding sore against them, Even insomuch that they began to rebel against their king, insomuch that they would not that he should be their king; Therefore, they took up arms against the people of Anti-Nephi-Lehi.

Alma 14:35 "Behold, I say unto you, Nay; Let us retain our swords, that they be not stained with the blood of our brethren,

Alma 14:36 For perhaps if we should stain our swords again, They can no more be washed bright through the blood of the Son of our great God which shall be shed for the atonement of our sins.

Alma 14:38 Yea, and He hath made these things known unto us beforehand because He loveth our souls, as well as He loveth our children; Therefore, in His mercy He doth visit us by His angels, that the plan of salvation might be made known unto us, as well as unto future generations; O how merciful is our God!

Alma 14:40 Let us hide them away, that they may be kept bright as a testimony to our God at the last day - or at the day that we shall be brought to stand before Him to be judged - that we have not stained our swords in the blood of our brethren since He imparted His word unto us and has made us clean thereby.

Alma 14:41 "And now my brethren, if our brethren seek to destroy us, behold, we will hide away our swords, Yea, even we will bury them deep in the earth, that they may be kept bright as a testimony that we have never used them, at the last day; And if our brethren destroy us, behold, we shall go to our God and shall be saved."

Alma 14:64 For many of them, after having suffered too much loss and so many afflictions, they began to be stirred up in remembrance of the words which Aaron and his brethren had preached to them in their land;

Alma 14:66 And it came to pass that those rulers which were the remnant of the children of Amulon caused that they should be put to death, yea, all those that believed in these things;

Alma 14:67 Now this martyrdom caused that many of their brethren should be stirred up to anger and there began to be contention in the wilderness; And the Lamanites began to hunt the seed of Amulon and his brethren and began to slay them; And they fled into the East Wilderness,

Alma 14:69 For he said unto them, "What ye shall do unto me shall be a type of things to come."

Alma 14:71 And he said unto the priests of Noah that their seed should cause many to be put to death in the like manner as he was, And that they should be scattered abroad and slain, even as a sheep having no shepherd is driven and slain by wild beasts;

Alma 14:74 And they did also bury their weapons of war according as their brethren had; And they began to be a righteous people, And they did walk in the ways of the Lord and did observe to keep His commandments and His statutes, Yea, and they did keep the law of Moses, for it was expedient that they should keep the law of Moses as yet, for it was not all fulfilled.

Alma 14:75 But notwithstanding the law of Moses, they did look forward to the coming of Christ, considering that the law of Moses was a type of His coming, And believing that they must keep those outward performances until the time that He should be revealed unto them.

Alma 14:85 "And behold the number of your sheaves, And they shall be gathered into the garners, that they are not wasted, Yea, they shall not be beaten down by the storm at the last day,

Alma 14:86 Yea, neither shall they be harrowed up by the whirlwinds; But when the storm cometh, they shall be gathered together in their place, that the storm cannot penetrate to them; Yea, neither shall they be driven with fierce winds whithersoever the enemy listeth to carry them;

Alma 14:88 "Blessed be the name of our God! Let us sing to His praise, Yea, let us give thanks to His holy name, For He doth work righteousness forever.

Alma 14:102 "And now behold, my brethren, what natural man is there that knoweth these things? I say unto you, there is none that knoweth these things, save it be the penitent -

Alma 14:103 Yea, he that repenteth, and exerciseth faith, and bringeth forth good works, and prayeth continually without ceasing, Unto such it is given to know the mysteries of God; Yea, unto such it shall be given to reveal things which never have been revealed;

Alma 14:104 Yea, and it shall be given unto such to bring thousands of souls to repentance, Even as it hath been given unto us to bring these our brethren to repentance.

Alma 14:115 And we have suffered all manner of afflictions; And all this that perhaps we might be the means of saving some soul, And we supposed that our joy would be full if perhaps we could be the means of saving some.

Alma 14:121 For behold, they would take up arms against their brethren, they would not suffer themselves to be slain;

Alma 14:126 "Yea, blessed is the name of my God who hath been mindful of this people which are a branch of the tree of Israel and hath been lost from its body in a strange land! Yea, I say blessed be the name of my God who hath been mindful of us wanderers in a strange land!

Alma 14:127 "Now my brethren, we see that God is mindful of every people in whatsoever land they may be in; Yea, He numbereth His people and His bowels of mercy are over all the earth;

Alma 15:4 Now this people again refused to take their arms, And they suffered themselves to be slain according to the desires of their enemy.

Alma 15:6 Therefore, when Ammon and his brethren saw this great work of destruction, they were moved with compassion and they said unto the king: "Let us gather together this people of the Lord, And let us go down to the Land of Zarahemla to our brethren the Nephites and flee out of the hands of our enemies, that we be not destroyed."

Alma 15:9 And the king saith unto him: "Yea, if the Lord saith unto us, 'Go, ' we will go down unto our brethren, And we will be their slaves until we repair unto them the many murders and sins which we have committed against them."

Alma 15:10 But Ammon saith unto him: "It is against the law of our brethren, which was established by my father, that there should be any slaves among them; Therefore, let us go down and rely upon the mercies of our brethren."

Alma 15:18 Now was not this exceeding joy? Behold, this is joy which none receiveth, save it be the truly penitent and humble seeker of happiness;

Alma 15:32 And they did look upon shedding the blood of their brethren with the greatest abhorrence; And they never could be prevailed upon to take up arms against their brethren.

Alma 15:34 Therefore, they would suffer death in the most aggravating and distressing manner which could be inflicted by their brethren before they would take the sword or the scimitar to smite them;

Alma 15:53 Yea, I would declare unto every soul as with the voice of thunder, repentance and the plan of redemption, That they should repent and come unto our God, That there might be no more sorrow upon all the face of the earth.

Alma 15:54 But behold, I am a man and do sin in my wish, For I had ought to be content with the things which the Lord hath allotted unto me;

Alma 15:55 I had not ought to harrow up in my desires the firm decree of a just God, For I know that He granteth unto men according to their desires, whether it be unto death or unto life, Yea, I know that He allotteth unto man, yea, decreeth unto them decrees which are unalterable according to their wills, whether it be unto salvation or unto destruction.

Alma 15:61 Yea, and this is my glory, that perhaps I may be an instrument in the hands of God to bring some soul to repentance; And this is my joy.

Alma 15:66 Behold, they have labored exceedingly and have brought forth much fruit; And how great shall be their reward.

Alma 15:69 And may God grant that it may be done according to my words, even as I have spoken. Amen.

Alma 16:3 But it came to pass that after they had buried their dead, and also after the days of fasting and mourning and prayer - and it was in the sixteenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi - there began to be continual peace throughout all the land, Yea, and the people did observe to keep the commandments of the Lord;

Alma 16:4 And they were strict in observing the ordinances of God according to the law of Moses, for they were taught to keep the law of Moses until it should be fulfilled;

Alma 16:8 Now there was no law against a man's belief, for it was strictly contrary to the commandments of God that there should be a law which should bring men on to unequal grounds,

Alma 16:11 But if he murdered, he was punished unto death, And if he robbed, he was also punished, And if he stole, he was also punished, And if he committed adultery, he was also punished; Yea, for all this wickedness they were punished, for there was a law that men should be judged according to their crimes;

Alma 16:13 And this antichrist whose name was Korihor - and the law could have no hold upon him - and he began to preach unto the people that there should be no Christ;

Alma 16:16 Behold, ye cannot know of things which ye do not see, Therefore, ye cannot know that there shall be a Christ.

Alma 16:18 And many more such things did he say unto them, telling them that there could be no atonement made for the sins of men; But every man fared in this life, according to the management of the creature, Therefore, every man prospered, according to his genius, And that every man conquered, according to his strength; And whatsoever a man did was no crime.

Alma 16:22 And it came to pass that he caused that he should be carried out of the land.

Alma 16:25 Why do ye teach this people that there shall be no Christ, to interrupt their rejoicings?

Alma 16:28 And Korihor saith unto him: "Because I do not teach the foolish traditions of your fathers, And because I do not teach this people to bind themselves down under the foolish ordinances and performances which are laid down by ancient priests to usurp power and authority over them, To keep them in ignorance that they may not lift up their heads, but be brought down according to thy words.

Alma 16:32 "And ye also say that Christ shall come; But behold, I say that ye do not know that there shall be a Christ;

Alma 16:33 And ye say also that He shall be slain for the sins of the world."And thus ye lead away this people after the foolish traditions of your fathers and according to your own desires.

Alma 16:35 Yea, they durst not make use of that which is their own, lest they should offend their priests which do yoke them according to their desires, And hath brought them to believe - by their traditions, and their dreams, and their whims, and their visions, and their pretended mysteries - That they should - if they did not do according to their words - offend some Unknown Being, which they say is God, A Being which never hath been seen nor known, which never was nor never will be."

Alma 16:37 But they caused that he should be bound, And they delivered him up into the hands of the officers and sent him to the Land of Zarahemla, that he might be brought before Alma and the chief judge which was governor over all the land.

Alma 16:48 And now what evidence have ye that there is no God, or that Christ cometh not? I say unto you that ye have none, save it be your word only;

Alma 16:52 And now Korihor saith unto Alma: "If thou wilt show me a sign that I may be convinced that there is a God, Yea, show unto me that He hath power, And then will I be convinced of the truth of thy words."

Alma 16:57 And now it came to pass that Alma said unto him: "Behold, I am grieved because of the hardness of your heart, Yea, that ye will still resist the Spirit of the truth that thy soul may be destroyed;

Alma 16:58 But behold, it is better that thy soul should be lost than that thou shouldst be the means of bringing many souls down to destruction by thy lying and by thy flattering words;

Alma 16:61 Now Alma saith unto him: "This will I give unto thee for a sign - that thou shalt be struck dumb according to my words; And I say that in the name of God that ye shall be struck dumb, that ye shall no more have utterance."

Alma 16:70 Now when he had said this, he besought that Alma should pray unto God that the curse might be taken from him;

Alma 16:71 But Alma said unto him: "If this curse should be taken from thee, thou wouldst again lead away the hearts of this people, Therefore, it shall be unto thee even as the Lord will."

Alma 16:81 Now the Nephites greatly feared that the Zoramites would enter into a correspondence with the Lamanites and that it would be the means of great loss on the part of the Nephites.

Alma 16:90 Therefore, whosoever desired to worship must go forth and stand upon the top thereof, And stretch forth his hands toward the heavens and cry with a loud voice, saying: "Holy, Holy God! We believe that Thou art God, And we believe that Thou art holy, and that Thou wast a Spirit, and that Thou art a Spirit, and that Thou wilt be a Spirit forever.

Alma 16:91 "Holy God, we believe that Thou hast separated us from our brethren; And we do not believe in the traditions of our brethren which was handed down to them by the childishness of their fathers, But we believe that Thou hast elected us to be Thy holy children;

Alma 16:92 And also, Thou hast made it known unto us that there shall be no Christ, But Thou art the same yesterday, today and forever; And Thou hast elected us that we shall be saved, whilst all around us are elected to be cast by Thy wrath down to hell, For the which holiness, O God, we thank Thee.

Alma 16:93 "And we also thank Thee that Thou hast elected us that we may not be led away after the foolish traditions of our brethren which doth bind them down to a belief of Christ, which doth lead their hearts to wander far from Thee our God;

Alma 16:107 "Yea, and they say that Thou hast made it known unto them that there shall be no Christ!

Alma 16:108 "O Lord God, how long wilt Thou suffer that such wickedness and infidelity shall be among this people?

Alma 16:130 "Behold, I say unto you, do ye suppose that ye cannot worship God save it be in your synagogues only?

Alma 16:132 "I say unto you, it is well that ye are cast out of your synagogues that ye may be humble and that ye may learn wisdom, For it is necessary that ye should learn wisdom;

Alma 16:133 For it is because that ye are cast out that ye are despised of your brethren, Because of your exceeding poverty that ye are brought to a lowliness of heart, For ye are necessarily brought to be humble.

Alma 16:134 "And now, because ye are compelled to be humble, blessed are ye, For a man sometimes, if he is compelled to be humble, seeketh repentance.

Alma 16:135 "And now surely, whosoever repenteth shall find mercy, And he that findeth mercy and endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.

Alma 16:136 "And now as I said unto you that because ye were compelled to be humble, ye were blessed, Do ye not suppose that they are more blessed who truly humble themselves because of the word?

Alma 16:137 Yea, he that truly humbleth himself and repenteth of his sins and endureth to the end, the same shall be blessed, Yea, much more blessed than they who art compelled to be humble because of their exceeding poverty; Therefore, blessed are they who humbleth themselves without being compelled to be humble,

Alma 16:142 "Behold, I say unto you that it is on the one hand even as it is on the other, And it shall be unto every man according to his work.

Alma 16:148 For I do not mean that ye - all of you - have been compelled to humble yourselves, For I verily believe there are some among you which would humble themselves, let them be in whatsoever circumstances he might -

Alma 16:153 "Now, if ye give place that a seed may be planted in your heart, Behold, if it be a true seed, or a good seed - if ye do not cast it out by your unbelief that ye will resist the Spirit of the Lord - Behold, it will begin to swell within your breasts;

Alma 16:154 And when you feel these swelling motions, ye will begin to say within yourselves: 'It must needs be that this is a good seed, or that the word is good, for it beginneth to enlarge my soul, Yea, it beginneth to enlighten my understanding, Yea, and it beginneth to be delicious to me.'

Alma 16:161 And this because you know, for ye know that the word hath swelled your souls, And ye also know that it hath sprouted up, that your understanding doth begin to be enlightened and your mind doth begin to expand.

Alma 16:167 "Now this is not because the seed was not good, Neither is it because the fruit thereof would not be desirable;

Alma 16:170 But if ye will nourish the word - Yea, nourish the tree as it beginneth to grow, by your faith with great diligence and with patience - looking forward to the fruit thereof, And it shall take root; And behold, it shall be a tree springing up unto everlasting life!

Alma 16:174 Now after Alma had spoken these words, they sent forth unto him desiring to know whether they should believe in one God, that they might obtain this fruit of which he had spoken, Or how they should plant the seed, or the word of which he had spoken, which he said must be planted in their hearts, Or in what manner they should begin to exercise their faith.

Alma 16:181 'And when I did turn unto my closet, O Lord, and prayed unto Thee, Thou didst hear me. 'Yea, Thou art merciful unto Thy children when they cry unto Thee to be heard of Thee and not of men, And Thou wilt hear them.

Alma 16:195 "O my brethren, if ye could be healed by merely casting about your eyes that ye might behold, would ye not behold quickly? Or would ye rather harden your hearts in unbelief and be slothful, that ye would not cast about your eyes that ye might perish?

Alma 16:197 And that He shall rise again from the dead, which shall bring to pass the resurrection, That all men shall stand before Him to be judged at the last and judgment day, according to their works.

Alma 16:200 And then may God grant unto you that your burdens may be light through the joy of His Son; And even all this can ye do, if ye will. Amen."

Alma 16:201 And now it came to pass that after Alma had spoken these words unto them, he sat down upon the ground, And Amulek arose and began to teach them, saying: "My brethren, I think that it is impossible that ye should be ignorant of the things which have been spoken concerning the coming of Christ, who is taught by us to be the Son of God;

Alma 16:203 Yea, even that ye would have so much faith as even to plant the word in your hearts, that ye may try the experiment of its goodness. "And we have beheld that the great question which is in your minds is whether the word be in the Son of God, or whether there shall be no Christ.

Alma 16:208 "For it is expedient that an atonement should be made; For according to the great plans of the Eternal God, there must be an atonement made, or else all mankind must unavoidably perish -

Alma 16:209 Yea, all are hardened, Yea, all are fallen and are lost and must perish, except it be through the atonement which it is expedient should be made.

Alma 16:210 "For it is expedient that there should be a great and last sacrifice, Yea, not a sacrifice of man, neither of beast, neither of any manner of fowl, For it shall not be a human sacrifice, But it must be an infinite and an eternal sacrifice.

Alma 16:213 But the law requireth the life of him who hath murdered; Therefore, there is nothing which is short of an infinite atonement which will suffice for the sins of the world, Therefore, it is expedient that there should be a great and last sacrifice.

Alma 16:214 "And then shall there be, or it is expedient there should be, a stop to the shedding of blood, Then shall the law of Moses be fulfilled, Yea, it shall all be fulfilled, every jot and tittle, And none shall have passed away.

Alma 16:215 "And behold, this is the whole meaning of the law, every whit a pointing to that great and last sacrifice, And that great and last sacrifice will be the Son of God, yea, infinite and eternal. "And thus He shall bring salvation to all those who shall believe on His name,

Alma 16:222 Yea, and when you do not cry unto the Lord, Let your hearts be full, drawn out in prayer unto Him continually for your welfare, and also for the welfare of those that are around you.

Alma 16:225 Therefore, if ye do not remember to be charitable, Ye are as dross which the refiners do cast out - it being of no worth - and is trodden underfoot of men.

Alma 16:227 Yea, I would that ye would come forth and harden not your hearts any longer; For behold, now is the time and the day of your salvation; And therefore, if ye will repent and harden not your hearts, Immediately shall the great plan of redemption be brought about unto you;

Alma 16:230 For after this day of life, which is given us to prepare for eternity, Behold, if we do not improve our time while in this life, then cometh the night of darkness wherein there can be no labor performed.

Alma 16:236 Yea, and He hath also said that the righteous should sit down in His kingdom to go no more out, But their garments should be made white through the blood of the Lamb.

Alma 16:237 "And now my beloved brethren, I desire that ye should remember these things, And that ye should work out your salvation with fear before God, And that ye should no more deny the coming of Christ, That ye contend no more against the Holy Ghost, But that ye receive it and take upon you the name of Christ, That ye humble yourselves even to the dust and worship God in whatsoever place ye may be in, in spirit and in truth,

Alma 16:238 And that ye live in thanksgiving daily for the many mercies and blessings which He doth bestow upon you."Yea, and I also exhort you, my brethren, that ye be watchful unto prayer continually, That ye may not be led away by the temptations of the devil, That he may not overpower you, That ye may not become his subjects at the last day; For behold, he rewardeth you no good thing.

Alma 16:255 And thus commenced a war betwixt the Lamanites and the Nephites in the eighteenth year of the reign of the judges, And an account shall be given of their wars hereafter.

Alma 16:259 And seeing that the hearts of the people began to wax hard and that they began to be offended because of the strictness of the word, His heart was exceeding sorrowful;

Alma 16:260 Therefore, he caused that his sons should be gathered together, That he might give unto them, every one, his charge separately concerning the things pertaining unto righteousness.

Alma 17:3 And now, O my son Helaman, behold, thou art in thy youth, And, therefore, I beseech of thee that thou wilt hear my words and learn of me; For I do know that whomsoever shall put his trust in God shall be supported in their trials and their troubles and their afflictions and shall be lifted up at the last day;

Alma 17:7 But behold, the voice said unto me, "Arise!" And I arose and stood up and beheld the angel, And he said unto me: "If thou wilt of thyself be destroyed, seek no more to destroy the church of God!"

Alma 17:9 And the angel spake more things unto me which were heard by my brethren, but I did not hear them, For when I heard the words - "If thou wilt be destroyed of thyself, seek no more to destroy the church of God!" - I was struck with such great fear and amazement, lest perhaps that I should be destroyed, that I fell to the earth and I did hear no more;

Alma 17:13 O, thought I, that I could be banished and become extinct, both soul and body! That I might not be brought to stand in the presence of my God to be judged of my deeds!

Alma 17:18 And O, what joy and what marvelous light I did behold! Yea, my soul was filled with joy as exceeding as was my pain; Yea, I say unto you my son, that there can be nothing so exquisite and so bitter as were my pains;

Alma 17:19 Yea, and again I say unto you my son, that on the other hand there can be nothing so exquisite and sweet as was my joy.

Alma 17:20 Yea, and methought I saw, even as our father Lehi saw, God sitting upon His throne surrounded with numberless concourses of angels in the attitude of singing and praising their God, Yea, and my soul did long to be there;

Alma 17:22 Yea, and from that time even until now, I have labored without ceasing that I might bring souls unto repentance, That I might bring them to taste of the exceeding joy of which I did taste, That they might also be born of God and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

Alma 17:30 And ye had ought to know also that inasmuch as ye will not keep the commandments of God, ye shall be cut off from His presence; Now this is according to His word.

Alma 17:33 And behold, it hath been prophesied by our fathers that they should be kept and handed down from one generation to another and be kept and preserved by the hand of the Lord, Until they shall go forth unto every nation, kindred, tongue and people, that they shall know of the mysteries contained thereon.

Alma 17:37 And now, it hath hitherto been wisdom in God that these things should be preserved; For behold, they have enlarged the memory of this people, Yea, and convinced many of the error of their ways, And brought them to the knowledge of their God, unto the salvation of their souls;

Alma 17:40 And who knoweth but what they will be the means of bringing many thousands of them - yea, and also many thousands of our stiff - necked brethren the Nephites, which are now hardening their hearts in sins and iniquities - to the knowledge of their Redeemer.

Alma 17:44 And He saith, "If ye will keep My commandments, ye shall prosper in the land, " But if ye keep not His commandments, ye shall be cut off from His presence.

Alma 17:46 And now behold, I tell you by the spirit of prophecy that if ye trangress the commandments of God, Behold, these things which are sacred shall be taken away from you by the power of God, And ye shall be delivered up unto Satan that he may sift you as chaff before the wind;

Alma 17:50 And now behold, one purpose hath He fulfilled, even to the restoration of many thousands of the Lamanites to the knowledge of the truth; And He hath shown forth His power in them, And He will also still show forth His power in them unto future generations, Therefore, they shall be preserved;

Alma 17:51 Therefore, I command you, my son Helaman, that ye be diligent in fulfilling all my words, And that ye be diligent in keeping the commandments of God as they are written.

Alma 17:52 And now, I will speak unto you concerning those twenty - four plates, that ye keep them, That the mysteries and the works of darkness and their secret works - or the secret works of those people which have been destroyed - may be made manifest unto this people -

Alma 17:53 Yea, all their murders and robbings and their plunderings, and all their wickedness and abominations may be made manifest unto this people - Yea, and that ye preserve these directors.

Alma 17:54 For, behold, the Lord saw that His people began to work in darkness, yea, work secret murders and abominations; Therefore, the Lord said if they did not repent, they should be destroyed from off the face of the earth.
