9:50 Come, my brethren, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the
waters; and he that hath no money, come buy and eat; yea, come buy wine
and milk without money and without price.
9:51 Wherefore, do not spend money for that which is of no worth, nor
your labor for that which cannot satisfy. Hearken diligently unto me,
and remember the words which I have spoken; and come unto the Holy One
of Israel, and feast upon that which perisheth not, neither can be
corrupted, and let your soul delight in fatness.
9:52 Behold, my beloved brethren, remember the words of your God; pray
unto him continually by day, and give thanks unto his holy name by
night. Let your hearts rejoice.
9:53 And behold how great the covenants of the Lord, and how great his
condescensions unto the children of men; and because of his greatness,
and his grace and mercy, he has promised unto us that our seed shall
not utterly be destroyed, according to the flesh, but that he would
preserve them; and in future generations they shall become a righteous
branch unto the house of Israel.
9:54 And now, my brethren, I would speak unto you more; but on the
morrow I will declare unto you the remainder of my words. Amen.
2 Nephi Chapter 10
10:1 And now I, Jacob, speak unto you again, my beloved brethren,
concerning this righteous branch of which I have spoken.
10:2 For behold, the promises which we have obtained are promises unto
us according to the flesh; wherefore, as it has been shown unto me that
many of our children shall perish in the flesh because of unbelief,
nevertheless, God will be merciful unto many; and our children shall be
restored, that they may come to that which will give them the true
knowledge of their Redeemer.
10:3 Wherefore, as I said unto you, it must needs be expedient that
Christ—for in the last night the angel spake unto me that this should
be his name—should come among the Jews, among those who are the more
wicked part of the world; and they shall crucify him—for thus it
behooveth our God, and there is none other nation on earth that would
crucify their God.
10:4 For should the mighty miracles be wrought among other nations they
would repent, and know that he be their God.
10:5 But because of priestcrafts and iniquities, they at Jerusalem will
stiffen their necks against him, that he be crucified.
10:6 Wherefore, because of their iniquities, destructions, famines,
pestilences, and bloodshed shall come upon them; and they who shall not
be destroyed shall be scattered among all nations.
10:7 But behold, thus saith the Lord God: When the day cometh that they
shall believe in me, that I am Christ, then have I covenanted with
their fathers that they shall be restored in the flesh, upon the earth,
unto the lands of their inheritance.
