Book of Mormon (Plain English Version)/2 Nephi/Chapter 11
Nephi writes more of Isaiah's words...
(compare 2 Nephi, chapter 11)
Jacob said many other things to my people, but what I've written is enough. Now I, Nephi, will write more of Isaiah's words, for my soul delights in them.
I compare Isaiah's words to the lives of my people, and I teach his words to all my children, for Isaiah truly saw the Redeemer, even as I have.
My brother, Jacob, has also seen Him, so I write Jacob's and Isaiah's words for my children. Their words will prove my words to be true, for God has said that by the words of three (Isaiah, Jacob and Nephi) He'll establish His word. Yet God sends more than three witnesses to prove all His words.
My soul delights in proving to my people the truth of the coming of Christ, for every law God has given since the beginning of the world, including the law of Moses, has been a type, or a representation of Christ.
My soul also delights in the covenants the Lord made with our forefathers. My soul delights in His grace, justice, power and mercy, and in the great, eternal plan that delivers us from an eternal death (spiritual and physical).
And most of all, my soul delights in proving to my people that unless Christ comes, we will all perish.
If there is no Christ, then there's no God. And if there's no God, then we do not exist, for we could not have been created. But there is a God, and He is Christ, and He will come in the fullness of His own time.
Now I'll write some of Isaiah's words so my people may rejoice for all mankind, for Isaiah wrote to all people.
