1 Nephi 21:9 9 That thou mayest say to the prisoners:  Go forth; to them that sit in darkness:  Show yourselves.  They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.

1 Nephi 21:10 10 They shall not hunger nor thirst, neither shall the heat nor the sun smite them; for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.

1 Nephi 21:11 11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted.

1 Nephi 21:12 12 And then, O house of Israel, behold, these shall come from far; and lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

1 Nephi 21:13 13 Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; for the feet of those who are in the east shall be established; and break forth into singing, O mountains; for they shall be smitten no more; for the Lord hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted.

1 Nephi 21:14 14 But, behold, Zion hath said:  The Lord hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me—­but he will show that he hath not.

1 Nephi 21:15 15 For can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb?  Yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee, O house of Israel.

1 Nephi 21:16 16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.

1 Nephi 21:17 17 Thy children shall make haste against thy destroyers; and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee.

1 Nephi 21:18 18 Lift up thine eyes round about and behold; all these gather themselves together, and they shall come to thee.  And as I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on even as a bride.

1 Nephi 21:19 19 For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants; and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away.

1 Nephi 21:20 20 The children whom thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the first, shall again in thine ears say:  The place is too strait for me; give place to me that I may dwell.

1 Nephi 21:21 21 Then shalt thou say in thine heart:  Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro?  And who hath brought up these?

Behold, I was left alone; these, where have they been?

1 Nephi 21:22 22 Thus saith the Lord God:  Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people; and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.

1 Nephi 21:23 23 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers; they shall bow down to thee with their face towards the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord; for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
