2 Nephi 28:15

O the wise, and the learned, and the rich,

that are puffed up in the pride of their hearts,

and all those who preach false doctrines,

and all those who commit whoredoms, and pervert the right way of the Lord,

wo, wo, wo be unto them, saith the Lord God Almighty,

for they shall be thrust down to hell!

2 Nephi 28:17

of their wickedness and abominations

they shall not be destroyed, saith the Lord of Hosts.

2 Nephi 28:22

And behold, others he flattereth away, and telleth them

there is no hell;

and he saith unto them:

I am no devil,

for there is none —

and thus he whispereth in their ears,

until he grasps them with his awful chains,

from whence there is no deliverance.

We have received, and we need no more!

2 Nephi 28:30

For behold, thus saith the Lord God:

I will give unto the children of men line upon line, precept upon precept,

here a little and there a little;

and blessed are those who hearken unto my precepts,

and lend an ear unto my counsel,

for they shall learn wisdom;

for unto him that receiveth I will give more;

and from them that shall say, We have enough,

from them shall be taken away even that which they have.

2 Nephi 28:32

Wo be unto the Gentiles, saith the Lord God of Hosts!

For notwithstanding I shall lengthen out mine arm unto them from day to day,

they will deny me;

nevertheless, I will be merciful unto them, saith the Lord God,

if they will repent and come unto me;

for mine arm is lengthened out all the day long, saith the Lord God of Hosts.

2 Nephi 29:4

But thus saith the Lord God:

O fools, they shall have a Bible;

and it shall proceed forth from the Jews, mine ancient covenant people.

And what thank they the Jews for the Bible which they receive from them?

Yea, what do the Gentiles mean?

Do they remember the travails, and the labors, and the pains of the Jews,

and their diligence unto me, in bringing forth salvation unto the Gentiles?
