      2 Nephi 29 Chapter 29

      2 Nephi 29:1

       1 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 29:2

       2 And also, that I may remember the promises which I have made

       unto thee, Nephi, and also unto thy father, that I would remember

       your seed; and that the words of your seed should proceed forth

       out of my mouth unto your seed; and my words shall hiss forth

       unto the ends of the earth, for a standard unto my people, which

       are of the house of Israel;

      2 Nephi 29:3

       3 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 29:4

       4 But thus saith the Lord God: O fools, they shall have a Bible;

       and it shall proceed forth from the Jews, mine ancient covenant

       people. And what thank they the Jews for the Bible which they

       receive from them? Yea, what do the Gentiles mean? Do they

       remember the travails, and the labors, and the pains of the Jews,

       and their diligence unto me, in bringing forth salvation unto the

       Gentiles?

      2 Nephi 29:5

       5 O ye Gentiles, have ye remembered the Jews, mine ancient

       covenant people? Nay; but ye have cursed them, and have hated

       them, and have not sought to recover them. But behold, I will

       return all these things upon your own heads; for I the Lord have

       not forgotten my people.

      2 Nephi 29:6

       6 Thou fool, that shall say: A Bible, we have got a Bible, and

       we need no more Bible. Have ye obtained a Bible save it were by

       the Jews?

      2 Nephi 29:7

       7 Know ye not that there are more nations than one? Know ye not

       that I, the Lord your God, have created all men, and that I

       remember those who are upon the isles of the sea; and that I rule

       in the heavens above and in the earth beneath; and I bring forth

       my word unto the children of men, yea, even upon all the nations

       of the earth?

      2 Nephi 29:8

       8 Wherefore murmur ye, because that ye shall receive more of my

       word? Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness

       unto you that I am God, that I remember one nation like unto

       another? Wherefore, I speak the same words unto one nation like

       unto another. And when the two nations shall run together the

       testimony of the two nations shall run together also.

      2 Nephi 29:9

       9 And I do this that I may prove unto many that I am the same

       yesterday, today, and forever; and that I speak forth my words

       according to mine own pleasure. 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 29:10

       10 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 29:11

       11 For I command all men, both in the east and in the west, and

       in the north, and in the south, and in the islands of the sea,

       that they shall write the words which I speak unto them; 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 29:12

       12 For behold, I shall speak unto the Jews and they shall write

       it; and I shall also speak unto the Nephites and they shall write

       it; and I shall also speak unto the other tribes of the house of

       Israel, which I have led away, and they shall write it; and I

       shall also speak unto all nations of the earth and they shall

       write it.

      2 Nephi 29:13

       13 And it shall come to pass that the Jews shall have the words

       of the Nephites, and the Nephites shall have the words of the

       Jews; and the Nephites and the Jews shall have the words of the

       lost tribes 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
