the prophet,

       and have despised the Holy One of Israel, they shall wander in

       the flesh, and perish, and become a hiss and a byword, and be

       hated among all nations.

      1 Nephi 19:15

       15 Nevertheless, when that day cometh, saith the prophet, that

       they no more turn aside their hearts against the Holy One of

       Israel, then will he remember the covenants which he made to

       their fathers.

      1 Nephi 19:16

       16 Yea, then will he remember the isles of the sea; yea, and all

       the people who are of the house of Israel, will I gather in,

       saith the Lord, according to the words of the prophet Zenos, from

       the four quarters of the earth.

      1 Nephi 19:17

       17 Yea, and all the earth shall see the salvation of the Lord,

       saith the prophet; every nation, kindred, tongue and people shall

       be blessed.

      1 Nephi 19:18

       18 And I, Nephi, have written these things unto my people, that

       perhaps I might persuade them that they would remember the Lord

       their Redeemer.

      1 Nephi 19:19

       19 Wherefore, I speak unto all the house of Israel, if it so be

       that they should obtain these things.

      1 Nephi 19:20

       20 For behold, I have workings in the spirit, which doth weary

       me even that all my joints are weak, for those who are at

       Jerusalem; for had not the Lord been merciful, to show unto me

       concerning them, even as he had prophets of old, I should have

       perished also.

      1 Nephi 19:21

       21 And he surely did show unto the prophets of old all things

       concerning them; and also he did show unto many concerning us;

       wherefore, it must needs be that we know concerning them for they

       are written upon the plates of brass.

      1 Nephi 19:22

       22 Now it came to pass that I, Nephi, did teach my brethren

       these things; and it came to pass that I did read many things to

       them, which were engraven upon the plates of brass, that they

       might know concerning the doings of the Lord in other lands,

       among people of old.

      1 Nephi 19:23

       23 And I did read many things unto them which were written in

       the books of Moses; but that I might more fully persuade them to

       believe in the Lord their Redeemer I did read unto them that

       which was written by the prophet Isaiah; for I did liken all

       scriptures unto us, that it might be for our profit and learning.

      1 Nephi 19:24

       24 Wherefore I spake unto them, saying: Hear ye the words of the

       prophet, ye who are a remnant of the house of Israel, a branch

       who have been broken off; hear ye the words of the prophet, which

       were written unto all the house of Israel, and liken them unto

       yourselves, that ye may have hope as well as your brethren from

       whom ye have been broken off; for after this manner has the

       prophet written.

      1 Nephi 20 Chapter 20

      1 Nephi 20:1

       1 Hearken and hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the

       name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, or

       out of the waters of baptism, who swear by the name of the Lord,

       and make mention of the God of Israel, yet they swear not in

       truth nor in righteousness.

      1 Nephi 20:2

       2 Nevertheless, they call themselves of the holy city, but they

       do not stay themselves upon the God of Israel, who is the Lord of

       Hosts; yea, the Lord of Hosts is his name.

      1 Nephi 20:3

       3 Behold, I have declared the former things from the beginning;

       and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them. I did

       show them suddenly.

      1 Nephi 20:4

       4 And I did it because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy

       neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;

      1 Nephi 20:5

       5 And I have even from the beginning declared to thee; before it

       came to pass I showed them thee; and I showed them for fear lest

       thou shouldst say—mine idol hath done them, and my graven image,

       and my molten image hath commanded them.

      1 Nephi 20:6

       6 Thou hast seen and heard all this; and will ye not declare

       them? And that I have showed thee new things from this time,

       even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.

      1 Nephi 20:7

       7 They are created now, and not from the beginning, even before

       the day when thou heardest them not they were declared unto thee,

       lest thou shouldst say—Behold I knew them.

      1 Nephi 20:8

       8 Yea, and thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from

       that time thine ear was not opened; for I knew that thou wouldst

       deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the

       womb.

      1 Nephi 20:9

       9 Nevertheless, for my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and

       for my praise will I refrain from thee, that I cut thee not off.

      1 Nephi 20:10

       10 For, behold, I have refined thee, I have chosen thee in the

       furnace of affliction.

      1 Nephi 20:11

       11 For mine own sake, yea, for mine own sake will I do this, for

       I will not suffer my name to be polluted, and I will not give my

       glory unto another.

      1 Nephi 20:12

       12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob, and Israel my called, for I am he;

       I am the first, and I am also the last.

      1 Nephi 20:13

       13 Mine hand hath also laid the foundation of the earth, and my

       right hand hath spanned the heavens. I call unto them and they

       stand up together.

      1 Nephi 20:14

       14 All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; who among them hath

       declared these things unto them? The Lord hath loved him; yea,

       and he will fulfill his word which he hath declared
