2 Nephi 26:3

And after the Messiah shall come

there shall be signs given unto my people of his birth,

and also of his death and resurrection;

and great and terrible shall that day be unto the wicked,

for they shall perish;

and they perish because they cast out the prophets, and the saints,

and stone them, and slay them;

wherefore the cry of the blood of the saints

shall ascend up to God from the ground against them.

And again, the Lord God hath commanded

that men should not murder;

that they should not lie;

that they should not steal;

that they should not take the name of the Lord their God in vain;

that they should not envy;

that they should not have malice;

that they should not contend one with another;

that they should not commit whoredoms;

and that they should do none of these things;

for whoso doeth them shall perish.

Therefore, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people,

yea, a marvelous work and a wonder,

for the wisdom of their wise and learned shall perish,

and the understanding of their prudent shall be hid.
