D&C 83 A New Song 17a: The Lord hath brought again Zion: The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of grace, which was brought to pass by the Faith and covenant of their Fathers . D&C 83 A New Song 16e Woe, I say again, unto that house, or that village, or city, that rejecteth you, or your words, or your testimony of me; for I, the Almighty, have laid my hands upon the nations to scourge them for their wickedness; 16f and plagues shall go forth, and they shall not be taken from the earth until I have completed my work, which shall be cut short in righteousness.

4 16g until all shall know me, who remain, even from the least unto the greatest, and shall be filled with the knowledge of the Lord, and shall see eye to eye, and shall lift up their voice, and with the voice together sing this new song, saying: The Lord hath brought again Zion Isaiah 52 8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing; for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion. 9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem; for the Lord hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem. 10 The Lord hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

5 D&C 83 A New Song 17a: The Lord hath brought again Zion: The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of grace, which was brought to pass by the Faith and covenant of their Fathers . The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Isaiah 42 1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my Spirit upon him; he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Isaiah 61 (Luke 4:16-21) 1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; 3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion; to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.

6 That they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Romans 8 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 29 For him whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to his own image, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover, him whom he did predestinate, him he also called; and him whom he called, him he also sanctified; and him whom he sanctified, him he also glorified. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Isaiah 42 1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my Spirit upon him; he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.

7 The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Isaiah 45 4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name; I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Jeremiah 23 6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. Jeremiah 33 16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely, and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The Lord our Righteousness. Jeremiah 51 10 The Lord hath brought forth our righteousness; come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the Lord our God.

8 The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Isaiah 65 9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains; and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there. 22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat; for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Romans 8 1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

9 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh; 4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Romans 8 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

10 8 So then they that are after the flesh cannot please God. 9 But ye are not after the flesh, but after the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in you, though the body shall die because of sin, yet the Spirit is life, because of righteousness. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Acts 4 12 Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Romans 10 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, according to the election of Mosiah 3 11 There is no other name given whereby salvation cometh; Therefore, I would that ye should take upon you the name of Christ all you that have entered into the covenant with God that ye should be obedient unto the end of your lives.
