2 Nephi 9:25

Wherefore, he has given a law;

and where there is no law given there is no punishment;

and where there is no punishment there is no condemnation;

and where there is no condemnation

the mercies of the Holy One of Israel have claim upon them,

because of the atonement;

for they are delivered by the power of him.

2 Nephi 9:28

O that cunning plan of the evil one!

O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men!

When they are learned they think they are wise,

and they hearken not unto the counsel of God,

for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves,

wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not.

And they shall perish.

2 Nephi 9:31

And wo unto the deaf that will not hear;

for they shall perish.

2 Nephi 9:32

Wo unto the blind that will not see;

for they shall perish also.

2 Nephi 9:36

Wo unto them who commit whoredoms,

for they shall be thrust down to hell.

2 Nephi 9:38

And, in fine, wo unto all those who die in their sins;

for they shall return to God, and behold his face, and remain in their sins.

2 Nephi 9:40

O, my beloved brethren, give ear to my words.

Remember the greatness of the Holy One of Israel.

Do not say that I have spoken hard things against you;

for if ye do, ye will revile against the truth;

for I have spoken the words of your Maker.

I know that the words of truth are hard against all uncleanness;

but the righteous fear them not,

for they love the truth and are not shaken.
