2 Nephi 1

2 Nephi 1:1 [LDS 1:1]
[And now] [it came to pass] after I, Nephi, [had made an end] [of teaching] [my brethren,] [our father,] Lehi, also spake many things unto them, [how great things] [the Lord] [had done] [for them,] [in bringing them] [out of the land] [of Jerusalem.]

2 Nephi 1:2 [LDS 1:2]
[And he spake] [unto them] concerning [their rebellions] upon [the waters,] [and the mercies] [of God] [in sparing] [their lives,] that [they were <not> swallowed up] [in the sea.]

2 Nephi 1:3 [LDS 1:3]
[And he <also> spake] [unto them] concerning [the land] [of promise] which [they had obtained,] how merciful [the Lord] [had been] [in warning us] [that we should flee] [out of the land] [of Jerusalem.]

2 Nephi 1:4 [LDS 1:4]
For, behold, [said he,] [I have seen] [a vision,] [in which] [I know] [that Jerusalem] [is destroyed;]

2 Nephi 1:5 [LDS 1:4]
[And had we remained] [in Jerusalem,] [we should <also> have perished.]

2 Nephi 1:6 [LDS 1:5]
[But,{incorrect punctuation} said he,] notwithstanding [our afflictions,] [we have obtained] [a land] [of promise,] [a land] which [is choice] [above all other] lands;

2 Nephi 1:7 [LDS 1:5]
[A land] which [the Lord] God [hath covenanted] [with me] [should be] [a land] for [the inheritance] [of my seed.]

2 Nephi 1:8 [LDS 1:5]
Yea, [the Lord] [hath covenanted] this land [unto me,] [and to my children] [for ever;]

2 Nephi 1:9 [LDS 1:5]
[And also] all [those who should be led out] [of <other> countries,] [by the hand] [of the Lord.]

2 Nephi 1:10 [LDS 1:6]
Wherefore, I, Lehi, prophesy [according to the workings] [of the Spirit] [which is] [in me,] that [there shall <none> come] [into <this> land,] save [they shall be brought] [by the hand] [of the Lord.]

2 Nephi 1:11 [LDS 1:7]
Wherefore, this land [is consecrated] [unto him] whom [he shall bring.]

2 Nephi 1:12 [LDS 1:7]
[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 [LDS 1:7]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} they] [shall never] [be brought down] [into captivity:] if so, [it shall be] [because of iniquity:]

2 Nephi 1:14 [LDS 1:7]
For if iniquity [shall abound,] cursed [shall be] [the land] [for their sakes;]

2 Nephi 1:15 [LDS 1:7]
[But unto the righteous,] [it shall be blessed] [for ever.]

2 Nephi 1:16 [LDS 1:8]
[And behold,] [it is] wisdom that this land [should be kept] as yet [from the knowledge] [of <other> nations;]

2 Nephi 1:17 [LDS 1:8]
For, behold, many nations [would overrun] [the land,] [that there would be] no place [for an inheritance.]

2 Nephi 1:18 [LDS 1:9] [Note]
Wherefore, I, Lehi, [have obtained] [a promise,] [that inasmuch] [as those whom] [the Lord] God [shall bring] [out of the land] [of Jerusalem] [shall keep] [his commandments,] [they shall prosper] upon [the face] [of this land;]

2 Nephi 1:19 [LDS 1:9]
[And they shall be kept] [from all other] nations, that [they may possess] this land [unto themselves.]

2 Nephi 1:20 [LDS 1:9]
[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 [LDS 1:9]
[And there shall be] none [to molest them,] nor [to take away] [the land] [of their inheritance;] [and they shall dwell] safely [for ever.]

2 Nephi 1:22 [LDS 1:10]
[But behold,] [when the time] cometh [that they shall dwindle] [in unbelief,] after [they have received] [so <great> blessings] [from the hand] [of the Lord;] [having a knowledge] [of the creation] [of the earth,] [and all] men, knowing [the great] [and marvelous works] [of the Lord] [from the creation] [of the world;] [having power] [given them] [to do] [all things] [by faith;] [having all] [the commandments] [from the beginning,] [and having been brought] [by his <infinite> goodness] [into this] precious [land of promise;]

2 Nephi 1:23 [LDS 1:10]
Behold, [I say,] If [the day] [shall come] [that they will reject] [the Holy One] [of Israel,] [the <true> Messiah,] [their Redeemer] [and their God,] behold, [the judgments of him] that [is just,] [shall rest] [upon them;]

2 Nephi 1:24 [LDS 1:11]
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 [LDS 1:12] [Note]
Yea, [as <one> generation] passeth [to another,] [there shall be] bloodsheds [and <great> visitations] [among them;]

2 Nephi 1:26 [LDS 1:12]
Wherefore, [my sons,] [I would] [that ye would remember;] yea, [I would that] [ye would hearken] unto [my words.]

2 Nephi 1:27 [LDS 1:13] [Note]
[O that] [ye would awake;] awake [from a deep sleep,] [yea,{incorrect punctuation} even] from [the sleep] [of hell,] [and shake off] [the <awful> chains] [by which] [ye are bound,] [which are] [the chains] which bind [the children] [of men,] that [they are carried away captive down] [to the <eternal> gulf] [of misery] [and wo!]

2 Nephi 1:28 [LDS 1:14] [Note]
Awake! [and rise] [from the dust,] [and hear] [the words] [of a <trembling> parent,] whose limbs [ye must soon] [lay down] [in the cold] [and <silent> grave,] [from whence] no traveler [can return;] [a few] more days, [and I go] [the way] [of all] [the earth.]

2 Nephi 1:29 [LDS 1:15]
[But behold,] [the Lord] [hath redeemed] [my soul] [from hell:] [I have beheld] [his glory,] [and I] [am encircled about] eternally [in the arms] [of his love.]

2 Nephi 1:30 [LDS 1:16]
[And I desire] [that ye should remember] [to observe] [the statutes] [and the judgments] [of the Lord:] behold, this [hath been] [the anxiety] [of my soul,] [from the beginning.]

2 Nephi 1:31 [LDS 1:17]
[My heart] [hath been weighed down] [with sorrow] [from time] to time; for [I have feared,] lest [for the hardness] [of your hearts,] [the Lord] [your God] [should come out] [in the fullness] [of his wrath] [upon you,] [that ye be cut off] [and destroyed] [for ever;]

2 Nephi 1:32 [LDS 1:18]
[Or that a cursing] [should come] [upon you] [for the space] [of <many> generations;] [and ye are visited] [by sword,] [and by famine,] [and are hated,] [and are led] [according to the will] [and captivity] [of the devil.]

2 Nephi 1:33 [LDS 1:19] [Note]
[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 [LDS 1:20]
[But behold,] [his will] [be done:] for [his ways] [are righteousness] [for ever;] [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 [LDS 1:21]
[And now] [that my soul] [might have joy] [in you,] [and that my heart] [might leave] this world [with gladness] [because of you;] [that I might <not> be brought down] [with grief] [and sorrow] [to the grave,]

2 Nephi 1:36 [LDS 1:22]
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 1:37 [LDS 1:22]
[And also,] [that ye may <not> incur] [the displeasure] [of a <just> God] [upon you,] [unto the destruction,] yea, [the <eternal> destruction] [of both soul] and body.

2 Nephi 1:38 [LDS 1:23]
Awake, [my sons:] [put on] [the armor] [of righteousness.]

2 Nephi 1:39 [LDS 1:23]
[Shake off] [the chains] [with which] [ye are bound,] [and come forth] [out of obscurity,] [and arise] [from the dust.]

2 Nephi 1:40 [LDS 1:24] [Note]
Rebel no more [against your brother,] whose views [have been glorious,] [and who] [hath kept] [the commandments] [from the time] [that we left] Jerusalem, [and who] [hath been] [an instrument] [in the hands] [of God] [in bringing us forth] [into the land] [of promise;]

2 Nephi 1:41 [LDS 1:24]
For [were it not] [for him] [we must have perished] [with hunger] [in the wilderness;]

2 Nephi 1:42 [LDS 1:24]
Nevertheless, [ye sought] [to take away] [his life;] yea, [and he hath suffered] much sorrow [because of you.]

2 Nephi 1:43 [LDS 1:25]
[And I <exceedingly> fear] [and tremble] [because of you,] lest [he shall suffer] again;

2 Nephi 1:44 [LDS 1:25]
For behold, [ye have accused him] [that he sought] power [and authority] [over you;]

2 Nephi 1:45 [LDS 1:25]
[But I know] that [he hath <not> sought] [for power] nor authority [over you;] [but he hath sought] [the glory] [of God,] [and your own <eternal> welfare.]

2 Nephi 1:46 [LDS 1:26]
[And ye have murmured] because [he hath been] plain [unto you.]

2 Nephi 1:47 [LDS 1:26]
[Ye say] that [he hath used] sharpness; [ye say] that [he hath been angry] [with you.]

2 Nephi 1:48 [LDS 1:26]
[But behold,] [his sharpness] was [the sharpness] [of the power] [of the word] [of God,] [which was] [in him;]

2 Nephi 1:49 [LDS 1:26]
[And that which] [ye call] anger, [was the truth,] [according to that which] [is in God,] which [he could] not restrain, manifesting boldly concerning [your iniquities.]

2 Nephi 1:50 [LDS 1:27]
[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 1:51 [LDS 1:27]
[But behold,] [it was] not him, [but it was] [the Spirit] [of the Lord] [which was] [in him,] which opened [his mouth] [to utterance,] [that he could] not [shut it.]

2 Nephi 1:52 [LDS 1:28]
[And now] [my son] Laman [and also] Lemuel [and Sam,] [and also] [my sons] who [are the sons] [of Ishmael,] behold, if [ye will hearken] [unto the voice] [of Nephi,] [ye shall <not> perish.]

2 Nephi 1:53 [LDS 1:28]
[And if] [ye will hearken] [unto him,] [I leave] [unto you] [a blessing,] [yea,{incorrect punctuation} even] [my <first> blessing.]

2 Nephi 1:54 [LDS 1:29]
[But if] [ye will <not> hearken] [unto him,] [I take away] [my <first> blessing,] [yea,{incorrect punctuation} even] [my blessing,] [and it shall rest] [upon him.]

2 Nephi 1:55 [LDS 1:30]
[And now,] Zoram, [I speak] [unto you:] Behold, [thou art] [the servant] [of Laban;] nevertheless, [thou hast been brought] [out of the land] [of Jerusalem,] [and I know] that [thou art] [a <true> friend] [unto my son] Nephi, [for ever.]

2 Nephi 1:56 [LDS 1:31]
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 [LDS 1:31]
[And nothing,] save [it shall be iniquity] [among them,] [shall harm] [or disturb] [their prosperity] upon [the face] [of this land] [for ever.]

2 Nephi 1:58 [LDS 1:32]
Wherefore, if [ye shall keep] [the commandments] [of the Lord,] [the Lord] [hath consecrated] this land [for the security] [of thy seed] with [the seed] [of my son.]

2 Nephi 1:59 [LDS 2:1]
[And now,] Jacob, [I speak] [unto you:] [Thou art] [my first born] [in the days] [of my tribulation] [in the wilderness.]

2 Nephi 1:60 [LDS 2:1]
[And behold,] [in thy childhood] [thou hast suffered] afflictions [and <much> sorrow,] [because of the rudeness] [of thy brethren.]

2 Nephi 1:61 [LDS 2:2]
[Nevertheless,{incorrect punctuation} Jacob,] [my first born] [in the wilderness,] thou knowest [the greatness] [of God;] [and he shall consecrate] [thine afflictions] [for thy gain.]

2 Nephi 1:62 [LDS 2:3]
[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 1:63 [LDS 2:3]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} I know] that [thou art redeemed,] [because of the righteousness] [of thy Redeemer:] for [thou hast beheld,] [that in the fullness] [of time,] [he cometh] [to bring] salvation unto men.

2 Nephi 1:64 [LDS 2:4]
[And thou hast beheld] [in thy youth] [his glory;] [wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} thou art] blessed [even as they unto whom] [he shall minister] [in the flesh:]

2 Nephi 1:65 [LDS 2:4]
For [the Spirit] [is the same,] yesterday, to-day, [and for ever.]

2 Nephi 1:66 [LDS 2:4]
[And the way] [is prepared] [from the fall] [of man,] [and salvation] [is free.]

2 Nephi 1:67 [LDS 2:5]
[And men] [are instructed] sufficiently, [that they know] good [from evil.]

2 Nephi 1:68 [LDS 2:5]
[And the law] [is given] unto men.

2 Nephi 1:69 [LDS 2:5]
[And by the law,] no flesh [is justified,] [or,{incorrect punctuation} by the law,] men [are cut off.]

2 Nephi 1:70 [LDS 2:5]
Yea, [by the <temporal> law,] [they were cut off;] [and also] [by the <spiritual> law] [they perish] [from that which] [is good,] [and become] miserable [for ever.]

2 Nephi 1:71 [LDS 2:6]
Wherefore, redemption cometh in [and through] [the <holy> Messiah:] for he [is full] [of grace] [and truth.]

2 Nephi 1:72 [LDS 2:7]
Behold, [he offereth himself] [a sacrifice] [for sin,] [to answer] [the ends] [of the law,] [unto all] [those who] [have a broken] heart [and a <contrite> spirit;] [and unto none] else [can the ends] [of the law] [be answered.]

2 Nephi 1:73 [LDS 2:8] [Note]
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 1:74 [LDS 2:8]
[Who layeth down] [his life] [according to the flesh,] [and taketh it] again [by the power] [of the Spirit,]

2 Nephi 1:75 [LDS 2:8]
[That he may bring to pass] [the resurrection] [of the dead,] being [the first] [that should rise.]

2 Nephi 1:76 [LDS 2:9]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} he is the first fruits] [unto God,] inasmuch [as he shall make intercession] [for all the children] [of men;]

2 Nephi 1:77 [LDS 2:9]
[And they that believe] [in him,] [shall be saved.]

2 Nephi 1:78 [LDS 2:10]
[And because of the intercession] [for all,] all men come unto God;

2 Nephi 1:79 [LDS 2:10]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} they stand] [in the presence] [of him,] [to be judged of him,] [according to the truth] [and holiness] which [is in him.]

2 Nephi 1:80 [LDS 2:10]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} the ends] [of the law] which [the Holy One] [hath given,] [unto the inflicting] [of the punishment] which [is affixed,] which punishment [that is affixed is] [in opposition] [to that] [of the happiness] which [is affixed,] [to answer] [the ends] [of the atonement;]

2 Nephi 1:81 [LDS 2:11]
For [it must needs be,] that [there is] [an opposition] [in all things.]

2 Nephi 1:82 [LDS 2:11]
If not so, [my first born] [in the wilderness,] righteousness [could <not> be brought to pass;] neither wickedness; neither holiness nor misery; neither good nor bad.

2 Nephi 1:83 [LDS 2:11] [Note]
Wherefore, [all things] [must needs be] [a compound] [in one;]

2 Nephi 1:84 [LDS 2:11] [Note]
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 1:85 [LDS 2:12]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} it must needs] [have been created] for [a thing of nought;]

2 Nephi 1:86 [LDS 2:12]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} there would have been] no purpose [in the end] [of its creation.]

2 Nephi 1:87 [LDS 2:12]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} this] thing [must needs] destroy [the wisdom] [of God,] [and his <eternal> purposes;] [and also,] [the power,] [and the mercy,] [and the justice] [of God.]

2 Nephi 1:88 [LDS 2:13]
[And if] [ye shall say] [there is <no> law,] [ye shall <also> say] [there is <no> sin.]

2 Nephi 1:89 [LDS 2:13]
[And if] [ye shall say] [there is <no> sin,] [ye shall <also> say] [there is <no> righteousness.]

2 Nephi 1:90 [LDS 2:13]
[And if] [there be] no righteousness, [there be] no happiness.

2 Nephi 1:91 [LDS 2:13]
[And if] [there be] no righteousness nor happiness, [there be] no punishment nor misery.

2 Nephi 1:92 [LDS 2:13]
[And if] these things [are not,] [there is <no> God.]

2 Nephi 1:93 [LDS 2:13]
[And if] [there is <no> <God,>{incorrect punctuation} 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 1:94 [LDS 2:14]
[And now,] [my son,] [I speak] [unto you] [these things,] for [your profit] [and learning:]

2 Nephi 1:95 [LDS 2:14] [Note]
For [there is a God,] [and he hath created] [all things,] [both the heavens] and [the earth,] (direct obj) [and all things] that [in them] is;]]

2 Nephi 1:96 [LDS 2:14]
[Both things] [to act,] [and things] [to be acted] upon;

2 Nephi 1:97 [LDS 2:15]
[And to bring about] [his <eternal> purposes] [in the end] [of man,] after [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 1:98 [LDS 2:15]
Even [the <forbidden> fruit] [in opposition] [to the tree] [of life;] [the one] being sweet [and the other] bitter;

2 Nephi 1:99 [LDS 2:16]
Wherefore, [the Lord] God gave unto man, [that he should act] [for himself.]

2 Nephi 1:100 [LDS 2:16]
Wherefore, man could not act [for himself,] save [it should be] that [he was enticed] [by the one] [or the other.]

2 Nephi 1:101 [LDS 2:17]
[And I,] Lehi, [according to the things] which [I have read,] [must needs] suppose that [an angel] [of God,] [according to that which] [is written,] [had fallen] [from heaven;]

2 Nephi 1:102 [LDS 2:17]
[Wherefore he became] [a devil,] [having sought] [that which] [was evil] before God.

2 Nephi 1:103 [LDS 2:18]
[And because] [he had fallen] [from heaven,] [and had become] miserable [for ever,] [he sought] also [the misery] [of all] mankind.

2 Nephi 1:104 [LDS 2:18]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} he said,] unto Eve, [yea,{incorrect punctuation} even] [that <old> serpent,] who [is the devil,] who [is the father] [of all] lies; wherefore [he said,] Partake [of the <forbidden> fruit,] [and ye shall <not> die,] [but ye shall be] [as God,] knowing good [and evil.]

2 Nephi 1:105 [LDS 2:19]
[And after] Adam [and Eve] [had partaken] [of the <forbidden> fruit,] [they were driven out] [of the garden] [of Eden,] [to till] [the earth.]

2 Nephi 1:106 [LDS 2:20]
[And they have brought forth] children; [yea,{incorrect punctuation} even] [the family] [of all] [the earth.]

2 Nephi 1:107 [LDS 2:21]
[And the days] [of the children] [of men] [were prolonged,] [according to the will] [of God,] [that they might repent] [while in the flesh;]

2 Nephi 1:108 [LDS 2:21]
[Wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} their state] became [a state] [of probation,] [and their time] [was lengthened,] [according to the commandments] which [the Lord] God gave unto [the children] [of men.]

2 Nephi 1:109 [LDS 2:21]
For [he gave commandment] [that all] men [must repent;]

2 Nephi 1:110 [LDS 2:21]
For [he shewed] unto all men that [they were lost,] because [of the transgression] [of their parents.]

2 Nephi 1:111 [LDS 2:22]
[And now,] behold, if Adam [had <not> transgressed,] [he would <not> have fallen;] [but he would have remained] [in the garden] [of Eden.]

2 Nephi 1:112 [LDS 2:22]
[And all things] which [were created,] [must have remained] [in the <same> state] which [they were,] after [they were created;] [and they must have remained] [for ever,] [and had <no> end.]

2 Nephi 1:113 [LDS 2:23]
[And they] [would have had <no> children;] [wherefore,{incorrect punctuation} they would have remained] [in a state] [of innocence,] [having no] joy, for [they knew] no misery; [doing <no> good,] for [they knew] no sin.

2 Nephi 1:114 [LDS 2:24]
[But behold,] [all things] [have been done] [in the wisdom] [of him] who knoweth [all things.]

2 Nephi 1:115 [LDS 2:25]
Adam fell, [that men] [might be;] [and men are,] [that they might have joy.]

2 Nephi 1:116 [LDS 2:26]
[And the Messiah] cometh [in the fullness] [of time,] [that he may redeem] [the children] [of men] [from the fall.]

2 Nephi 1:117 [LDS 2:26]
[And because] [that they are redeemed] [from the fall,] [they have become] free [for ever,] knowing good [from evil;]

2 Nephi 1:118 [LDS 2:26]
[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 1:119 [LDS 2:27]
Wherefore, men [are free] [according to the flesh;] [and all things] [are given them] which [are expedient] unto man.

2 Nephi 1:120 [LDS 2:27]
[And they are free] [to choose] liberty [and <eternal> life,] [through the <great> mediation] [of all] men, [or to choose] captivity [and death,] [according to the captivity] [and power] [of the devil:]

2 Nephi 1:121 [LDS 2:27]
For [he seeketh] [that all] men [might be miserable] [like unto himself.]

2 Nephi 1:122 [LDS 2:28] [Note]
[And now,] [my sons,] [I would that] [ye should look] to [the <great> Mediator,] [and hearken] unto [his <great> commandments;]

2 Nephi 1:123 [LDS 2:28]
[And be faithful] unto [his words,] [and choose] eternal life, [according to the will] [of his <Holy> Spirit,]

2 Nephi 1:124 [LDS 2:29]
[And <not> choose] eternal death, [according to the will] [of the flesh] [and the evil] [which is] therein,

2 Nephi 1:125 [LDS 2:29]
Which giveth [the spirit] [of the devil] power [to captivate,] [to bring you down] [to hell,] [that he may reign] [over you] [in his own kingdom.]

2 Nephi 1:126 [LDS 2:30]
[I have spoken] these few words [unto you] all, [my sons,] [in the last] days [of my probation;]

2 Nephi 1:127 [LDS 2:30]
[And I have chosen] [the <good> part,] [according to the words] [of the prophet.]

2 Nephi 1:128 [LDS 2:30] [Note]
[And I have <none> <other> object,] save [it be] [the <everlasting> welfare] [of your souls.] Amen.
