of Israel; and the lost tribes of Israel shall have

       the words of the Nephites and the Jews.

       2 Nephi 29:14

       14 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. And I will show unto them that fight against my word and against my

       people, who are of the house of Israel, that I am God, and that I

       covenanted with Abraham that I would remember his seed forever.

       2 Nephi 30 Chapter 30

       2 Nephi 30:1

       1 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. For behold, except ye shall keep the commandments of God ye shall all likewise perish; and because of the words which have been spoken ye need not suppose that the Gentiles are utterly destroyed.

       2 Nephi 30:2

       2 For behold, I say unto you that 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; for the Lord covenanteth with none save it be with them that repent and believe in his Son, who is the Holy One of Israel.

       2 Nephi 30:3

       3 And now, I would prophesy somewhat more concerning the Jews and the Gentiles. 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 30:4

       4 And then shall the remnant of our seed know concerning us, how that we came out from Jerusalem, and that they are descendants of the Jews.

       2 Nephi 30:5

       5 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 30:6

       6 And then shall they rejoice; for they shall know that it is a blessing unto them from the hand of God; 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 pure and delightsome people.

       113

       2 Nephi 30:7

       7 And it shall come to pass that the Jews which are scattered also shall begin to believe in Christ; and they shall begin to gather in upon the face of the land; and as many as shall believe in Christ shall also become a delightsome people.

       2 Nephi 30:8

       8 And it shall come to pass that the Lord God shall commence his work among all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people, to bring about the restoration of his people upon the earth.

       2 Nephi 30:9

       9 And with righteousness shall the Lord God judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth. And he shall

       smite the earth with the rod of his mouth; and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

       2 Nephi 30:10

       10 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 30:11

       11 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

       2 Nephi 30:12

       12 And then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb; and the leopard shall lie down with the kid, and the calf, and the young lion,

       and the fatling, together; and a little child shall lead them.

       2 Nephi 30:13

       13 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

       2 Nephi 30:14

       14 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice's den.

       2 Nephi 30:15

       15 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 30:16

       16 Wherefore, the things of all nations shall be made known;

       yea, all things shall be made known unto the children of men.

       2 Nephi 30:17

       17 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 the earth save it shall be loosed.

       2 Nephi 30:18

       18 Wherefore, all things which have been revealed unto the children of men shall at that day be revealed; and Satan shall

       have power over the hearts of the children of men no more, for a long time. And now, my beloved brethren, I make an end of my sayings.

       2 Nephi 31 Chapter 31

       2 Nephi 31:1

       1 And now I, Nephi, make an end of my prophesying unto you, my beloved brethren. And I cannot write but a few things, which I

       know must surely come to pass; neither can I write but a few of the words of my brother Jacob.

       2 Nephi 31:2

       114

       2 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 31:3

       3 For my soul delighteth in plainness; for after this manner

       doth the Lord God work among the children of men. For the Lord God giveth light unto the understanding; for he speaketh unto men according to their language, unto their understanding.

       2 Nephi 31:4

       4 Wherefore, I would that ye should remember that I have spoken unto you concerning that prophet which the Lord showed unto me, that should baptize the Lamb of God, which should take away the sins of the world.

       2 Nephi 31:5

       5 And now, if the Lamb of God, he being holy, should have need to be baptized by water, to fulfil all righteousness, O then, how much more need have we, being unholy, to be baptized, yea, even by water!

       2 Nephi 31:6

       6 And now, I would ask of you, my beloved brethren, wherein the Lamb of God did fulfil all righteousness in being baptized by water?

       2 Nephi 31:7

       7 Know ye not that he was holy? 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 31:8

       8 Wherefore, after he was baptized with water the Holy Ghost descended upon him in the form of a dove.

       2 Nephi 31:9

       9 And again, it showeth unto the children of men the straightness of the path, and the narrowness of the gate, by which they should enter, he having set the example before them.

       2 Nephi 31:10

       10 And he said unto the children of men: Follow thou me. Wherefore, my beloved brethren, can we follow Jesus save we shall be willing to keep the commandments of the Father?

       2 Nephi 31:11

       11 And the Father said: Repent
