35 For the Lord has made the sea our path, and we are upon an isle of the sea.
36 But great are the promises of the Lord unto those who are upon the isles of the sea;
37 Wherefore, as it says isles, there must needs be more than this; and they are inhabited also by our brethren.
38 For behold, the Lord God has led away from time to time from the house of Israel, according to his will and pleasure.
39 And now, behold, the Lord remembereth all those who have been broken off; wherefore, he remembereth us also.
40 Therefore cheer up your hearts, and remember that ye are free to act for yourselves; to choose the way of everlasting death, or the way of eternal life.
41 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, reconcile yourselves to the will of God, and not to the will of the devil and the flesh;
42 And remember after ye are reconciled unto God, that it is only in and through the grace of God that ye are saved.
43 Wherefore, may God raise you from death, by the power of the resurrection, and also from everlasting death, by the power of the atonement,
44 That ye may be received into the eternal kingdom of God, that ye may praise him through grace divine. Amen.
2 Nephi 8 1 And now Jacob spake many more things to my people at that time; nevertheless, only these things have I caused to be written; for the things which I have written sufficeth me.
