2 Nephi 25:22

as long as the earth shall stand;

and they shall go according to the will and pleasure of God;

and the nations who shall possess them shall be judged of them

according to the words which are written.

2 Nephi 25:27

Wherefore, we speak concerning the law

that our children may know the deadness of the law;

and they, by knowing the deadness of the law,

may look forward unto that life which is in Christ,

and know for what end the law was given.

And after the law is fulfilled in Christ,

that they need not harden their hearts against him

when the law ought to be done away.

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.

2 Nephi 26:5

and they that kill the prophets, and the saints,

the depths of the earth shall swallow them up, saith the Lord of Hosts;

and mountains shall cover them,

and whirlwinds shall carry them away,

and buildings shall fall upon them

and crush them to pieces and grind them to powder.

2 Nephi 26:6

and they shall be visited with thunderings, and lightnings,

and earthquakes, and all manner of destructions,

for the fire of the anger of the Lord shall be kindled against them,

and they shall be as stubble,

and the day that cometh shall consume them, saith the Lord of Hosts.

and they shall have peace with him, until three generations shall have passed away,

and many of the fourth generation shall have passed away in righteousness.

2 Nephi 26:10

And when these things have passed away

a speedy destruction cometh unto my people;

for, notwithstanding the pains of my soul, I have seen it;

wherefore, I know that it shall come to pass;

and they sell themselves for naught;

for, for the reward of their pride and their foolishness they shall reap destruction;

for because they yield unto the devil

and choose works of darkness rather than light,

therefore they must go down to hell.

2 Nephi 26:17

For thus saith the Lord God:

They shall write the things which shall be done among them,

and they shall be written and sealed up in a book,

and those who have dwindled in unbelief shall not have them,

for they seek to destroy the things of God.

2 Nephi 27:6

the Lord God shall bring forth unto you the words of a book,

and they shall be the words of them which have slumbered.

And the day cometh that the words of the book which were sealed

shall be read upon the house tops;

and they shall be read by the power of Christ;

and all things shall be revealed unto the children of men

which ever have been among the children of men,

and which ever will be even unto the end of the earth.

2 Nephi 27:12

Wherefore, at that day when the book shall be delivered

unto the man of whom I have spoken,

the book shall be hid from the eyes of the world,

that the eyes of none shall behold it

save it be that three witnesses shall behold it, by the power of God,

besides him to whom the book shall be delivered;

and they shall testify to the truth of the book and the things therein.

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?

Surely, your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay.

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?

and they that make a man an offender for a word,

and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate,

and turn aside the just for a thing of naught.

They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding,

and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
