2 Nephi 8:1

Hearken unto me, ye that follow after righteousness.

Look unto the rock from whence ye are hewn,

and to the hole of the pit from whence ye are digged.

2 Nephi 8:5

My righteousness is near;

my salvation is gone forth,

and mine arm shall judge the people.

The isles shall wait upon me,

and on mine arm shall they trust.

2 Nephi 8:6

Lift up your eyes to the heavens,

and look upon the earth beneath;

for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke,

and the earth shall wax old like a garment;

and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner.

But my salvation shall be forever,

and my righteousness shall not be abolished.

2 Nephi 8:7

Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness,

the people in whose heart I have written my law,

fear ye not the reproach of men,

neither be ye afraid of their revilings.

2 Nephi 8:8

For the moth shall eat them up like a garment,

and the worm shall eat them like wool.

But my righteousness shall be forever,

and my salvation from generation to generation.
