2 Nephi 32:7, 8



2 Nephi 32:7

And now I, Nephi, cannot say more;

the Spirit stoppeth mine utterance,

and I am left to mourn because of the unbelief, and the wickedness,

and the ignorance, and the stiffneckedness of men;

for they will not search knowledge,

nor understand great knowledge, when it is given unto them in plainness,

even as plain as word can be.



2 Nephi 32:8

And now, my beloved brethren,

I perceive that ye ponder still in your hearts;

and it grieveth me that I must speak concerning this thing.

For if ye would hearken unto the Spirit which teacheth a man to pray

ye would know that ye must pray;

for the evil Spirit teacheth not a man to pray,

but teacheth him that he must not pray.
