2 Nephi 12:6

Therefore, O Lord, thou hast forsaken thy people, the house of Jacob,

because they be replenished from the east,

and hearken unto soothsayers like the Philistines,

and they please themselves in the children of strangers.

2 Nephi 15:13

Therefore, my people are gone into captivity,

because they have no knowledge;

and their honorable men are famished,

and their multitude dried up with thirst.

2 Nephi 15:24

Therefore, as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff,

their root shall be rottenness, and their blossoms shall go up as dust;

because they have cast away the law of the Lord of Hosts,

and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
