1 Nephi 5:240 - 1 Nephi 5:250
240 Yea, the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, yieldeth himself according to words of the angel, as a man, into the hands of wicked men, to be lifted up according to the words of Zenock,
241 And to be crucified, according to the words of Neum,
242 And to be buried in a sepulcher, according to the words of Zenos, which he spake concerning the three days of darkness,
243 Which should be a sign given of his death, unto those who should inhabit the isles of the sea;
244 More especially given unto those who are of the house of Israel.
245 For thus spake the prophet, The Lord God surely shall visit all the house of Israel at that day;
246 Some with his voice, because of their righteousness, unto their great joy and salvation;
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;
248 And all these things must surely come, saith the prophet Zenos.
249 And the rocks of the earth must rend;
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.
