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 by them; and
he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall come upon
the Chaldeans.
1 Nephi 20:15
15 Also, saith the Lord; I the Lord, yea, I have spoken; yea, I
have called him to declare, I have brought him, and he shall make
his way prosperous.
1 Nephi 20:16
16 Come ye near unto me; I have not spoken in secret; from the
beginning, from the time that it was declared have I spoken; and
the Lord God, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
1 Nephi 20:17
17 And thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of
Israel; I have sent him, the Lord thy God who teacheth thee to
profit, who leadeth thee by the way thou shouldst go, hath done
it.
1 Nephi 20:18
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments—then had thy
peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the
sea.
1 Nephi 20:19
19 Thy seed also had been as the sand; the offspring of thy
bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut
off nor destroyed from before me.
1 Nephi 20:20
20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a
voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter to the end of the
earth; say ye: The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
1 Nephi 20:21
21 And they thirsted not; he led them through the deserts; he
caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; he clave the
rock also and the waters gushed out.
1 Nephi 20:22
22 And notwithstanding he hath done all this, and greater also,
there is no peace, saith the Lord, unto the wicked.
1 Nephi 21 Chapter 21
1 Nephi 21:1
1 And again: Hearken, O ye house of Israel, all ye that are
broken off and are driven out because of the wickedness of the
pastors of my people; yea, all ye that are broken off, that are
scattered abroad, who are of my people, O house of Israel.
Listen, O isles, unto me, and hearken ye people from far; the
Lord hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother
hath he made mention of my name.
1 Nephi 21:2
2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of
his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his
quiver hath he hid me;
1 Nephi 21:3
3 And said unto me: Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I
will be glorified.
1 Nephi 21:4
4 Then I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength
for naught and in vain; surely my judgment is with the Lord, and
my work with my God.
1 Nephi 21:5
5 And now, saith the Lord—that formed me from the womb that I
should be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him—though Israel
be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the Lord,
and my God shall be my strength.
1 Nephi 21:6
6 And he said: It is a light thing that thou shouldst be my
servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the
preserved of Israel. I will also give thee for a light to the
Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the ends of the
earth.
1 Nephi 21:7
7 Thus saith the Lord, the Redeemer of Israel, his Holy One, to
him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to
servant of rulers: Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall
worship, because of the Lord that is faithful.
