29:7 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?
29:8 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.
29:9 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.
29:10 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.
29:11 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.
29:12 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.
29:13 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.
29:14 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 Chapter 30
30:1 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.
