2 Nephi 27:27

And wo unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord!

And their works are in the dark;

and they say:

Who seeth us, and who knoweth us?

But behold, I will show unto them, saith the Lord of Hosts,

that I know all their works.

For shall the work say of him that made it,

he made me not?

Or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it,

he had no understanding?

2 Nephi 27:34

But when he seeth his children,

the work of my hands, in the midst of him,

they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob,

and shall fear the God of Israel.
