2 Nephi 11
1 And now, Jacob spake many more things to my people at that time;
nevertheless only these things have I caused to be written, for the things
which I have written sufficeth me.
2 And now I, Nephi, write more of the words of Isaiah, for my soul
delighteth in his words. For I will liken his words unto my people, and I will
send them forth unto all my children, for he verily saw my Redeemer, even as
I have seen him.
3 And my brother, Jacob, also has seen him as I have seen him; wherefore, I
will send their words forth unto my children to prove unto them that my
words are true. Wherefore, by the words of three, God hath said, I will
establish my word. Nevertheless, God sendeth more witnesses, and he
proveth all his words.
4 Behold, my soul delighteth in proving unto my people the truth of the
coming of Christ; for, for this end hath the law of Moses been given; and all
things which have been given of God from the beginning of the world, unto
man, are the typifying of him.
5 And also my soul delighteth in the covenants of the Lord which he hath
made to our fathers; yea, my soul delighteth in his grace, and in his justice,
and power, and mercy in the great and eternal plan of deliverance from
death.
6 And my soul delighteth in proving unto my people that save Christ should
come all men must perish.
7 For if there be no Christ there be no God; and if there be no God we are
not, for there could have been no creation. But there is a God, and he is
Christ, and he cometh in the fulness of his own time.
8 And now I write some of the words of Isaiah, that whoso of my people
shall see these words may lift up their hearts and rejoice for all men. Now
these are the words, and ye may liken them unto you and unto all men.
