2 Nephi 25:14

And behold it shall come to pass that

and choose works of darkness rather than light,

therefore they must go down to hell.

and behold he drinketh

but he awaketh and behold he is faint, and his soul hath appetite;

yea, even so shall the multitude of all the nations be that fight against Mount Zion.
