The Psalm of Nephi

The Setting: The Death of Lehi 2 Nephi 4:12

Reaction to the Gospel of Christ Nephi 1 Nephi 1 to 2 Nephi 4 Lehi’s Family Israel (Scattering and Gathering) Lehi’s Family Nephi

First Stanza (Chiasmus Parallelism) Behold, my soul delighteth in the things of the Lord: and

My Soul Delighteth "my soul delighteth in the scriptures, and my heart pondereth them, and writeth them for the learning and the profit of my children.“ (4:15 "my soul delighteth in the things of the Lord; and my heart pondereth continually upon the things which I have seen and heard.“ (4:16) "my soul delighteth in his [Isaiah's] words.“ (11:2) "my soul delighteth in proving unto my people the truth of the coming of Christ . . .“ (11:4) "my soul delighteth in the covenants of the Lord which he hath made to our fathers“ (11:5) "my soul delighteth in his grace, and in his justice, and power, and mercy in the great and eternal plan of deliverance from death.“ (11:5) "my soul delighteth in proving unto my people that save Christ should come all men must perish. (11:6) "my soul delighteth in plainness unto my people, that they may learn.“ (25:4) "my soul delighteth in the words of Isaiah . . .“ (25:5) "my soul delighteth to prophesy concerning [Christ]“ (25:13) "my soul delighteth in plainness; for after this manner doth the Lord God work among the children of men.“ (31:3)

First Stanza (Chiasmus Parallelism) Behold, my soul delighteth in the things of the Lord: and My heart pondereth continually upon the things which I have seen and heard. Nevertheless, notwithstanding the great goodness of the Lord in showing me his great and marvelous work My heart exclaimeth: O wretched man that I am! Yea my heart sorroweth because of my flesh My soul grieveth because of mine iniquities.

The Great Question! Oh then If I have seen so great things If the Lord [in his condescension unto the children of men] hath visited men in so much mercy Why? Should my heart weep and my soul linger in the valley of sorrow… And my flesh waste away and my strength slacken Because of my afflictions And Why? Should I yield to sin… …should I give way to temptations (that the evil one have place, in my heart, to destroy my peace and afflict my soul. Am I angry because of mine enemy!

And, the Great Answer! Awake, my soul! No longer droop in sin. Rejoice, O my heart, and give place no more for the enemy of my soul. Do not anger again because of mine enemies Do not slacken my strength because of mine afflictions.
