2 Nephi 9:39

O, my beloved brethren,

remember the awfulness in transgressing against that Holy God,

and also the awfulness of yielding to the enticings of that cunning one.

Remember, to be carnally-minded is death,

and to be spiritually-minded is life eternal.

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.

2 Nephi 9:44

O, my beloved brethren, remember my words.

Behold, I take off my garments, and I shake them before you;

I pray the God of my salvation that he view me with his all-searching eye;

wherefore, ye shall know at the last day,

when all men shall be judged of their works,

that the God of Israel did witness

that I shook your iniquities from my soul,

and that I stand with brightness before him,

and am rid of your blood.

2 Nephi 9:45

O, my beloved brethren, turn away from your sins;

shake off the chains of him that would bind you fast;

come unto that God who is the rock of your salvation.
