1 Nephi 11:36

And it came to pass that I saw and bear record,

that the great and spacious building was the pride of the world;

and it fell, and the fall thereof was exceedingly great.

And the angel of the Lord spake unto me again, saying:

Thus shall be the destruction of all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people,

that shall fight against the twelve apostles of the Lamb.



1 Nephi 12:18

And the large and spacious building, which thy father saw,

is vain imaginations and the pride of the children of men.

And a great and a terrible gulf divideth them;

yea, even the word of the justice of the Eternal God, and the Messiah

who is the Lamb of God,

of whom the Holy Ghost beareth record,

from the beginning of the world until this time,

and from this time henceforth and forever.



1 Nephi 12:19

And while the angel spake these words,

I beheld and saw that the seed of my brethren did contend against my seed,

according to the word of the angel;

and because of the pride of my seed, and the temptations of the devil,

I beheld that the seed of my brethren did overpower the people of my seed.
