1 Nephi 10:4
4 Yea, even six hundred years from the time that my father left
Jerusalem, a prophet would the Lord God raise up among the
Jews—even a Messiah, or, in other words, a Savior of the world.
1 Nephi 10:5
5 And he also spake concerning the prophets, how great a number
had testified of these things, concerning this Messiah, of whom
he had spoken, or this Redeemer of the world.
1 Nephi 10:6
6 Wherefore, all mankind were in a lost and in a fallen state,
and ever would be save they should rely on this Redeemer.
1 Nephi 10:7
7 And he spake also concerning a prophet who should come before
the Messiah, to prepare the way of the Lord—
1 Nephi 10:8
8 Yea, even he should go forth and cry in the wilderness:
Prepare ye the way of the Lord, and make his paths straight; for
there standeth one among you whom ye know not; and he is mightier
than I, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose. And
much spake my father concerning this thing.
1 Nephi 10:9
9 And my father said he should baptize in Bethabara, beyond
Jordan; and he also said he should baptize with water; even that
he should baptize the Messiah with water.
1 Nephi 10:10
10 And after he had baptized the Messiah with water, he should
behold and bear record that he had baptized the Lamb of God, who
should take away the sins of the world.
1 Nephi 10:11
11 And it came to pass after my father had spoken these words he
spake unto my brethren concerning the gospel which should be
preached among the Jews, and also concerning the dwindling of the
Jews in unbelief. And after they had slain the Messiah, who
should come, and after he had been slain he should rise from the
dead, and should make himself manifest, by the Holy Ghost, unto
the Gentiles.
1 Nephi 10:12
12 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 10:13
13 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 10:14
14 And after the house of Israel should be scattered they should
be gathered together again; or, in fine, after the Gentiles had
received the fulness 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 10:15
15 And after this manner of language did my father prophesy and
speak unto my brethren, and also many more things which I do not
write in this book; for I have written as many of them as were
expedient for me in mine other book.
1 Nephi 10:16
16 And all these things, of which I have spoken, were done as my
father dwelt in a tent, in the valley of Lemuel.
1 Nephi 10:17
17 And it came to pass after I, Nephi, having heard all the
words of my father, concerning the things which he saw in a
vision, and also the things which he spake by the power of the
Holy Ghost, which power he received by faith on the Son of
God—and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come—I,
Nephi, was desirous also that I might see, and hear, and know of
these things, by the power of the Holy Ghost, which is the gift
of God unto all those who diligently seek him, as well in times
of old as in the time that he should manifest himself unto the
children of men.
1 Nephi 10:18
18 For he is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever; 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 10:19
19 For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries
of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy
Ghost, as well in these times as in times of old, and as well in
times of old as in times to come; wherefore, the course of the
Lord is one eternal round.
1 Nephi 10:20
20 Therefore remember, O man, for all thy doings thou shalt be
brought into judgment.
1 Nephi 10:21
21 Wherefore, if ye have sought to do wickedly in the days of
your probation, then ye are found unclean before the
judgment-seat of God; and no unclean thing can dwell with God;
wherefore, ye must be cast off forever.
1 Nephi 10:22
22 And the Holy Ghost giveth authority that I should speak these
things, and deny them not.
1 Nephi 11 Chapter 11
1 Nephi 11:1
1 For it came to pass after I had desired to know the things
that my father had seen, and believing that the Lord was able to
make them known unto me, as I sat pondering in mine heart I was
caught away in the Spirit of the Lord, yea, into an exceedingly
high mountain, which I never had before seen, and upon which I
never had before set my foot.
1 Nephi 11:2
2 And the Spirit said unto me: Behold, what desirest thou?
1 Nephi 11:3
3 And I said: I desire to behold the things which my father saw.
1 Nephi 11:4
4 And the Spirit said unto me: Believest thou that thy father
saw the tree of which he hath spoken?
1 Nephi 11:5
5 And I said: Yea, thou knowest that I believe all the words of
my
