1 Nephi 12:4

And it came to pass that I saw a mist of darkness

on the face of the land of promise;

and I saw lightnings, and I heard thunderings, and earthquakes,

and all manner of tumultuous noises;

and I saw the earth and the rocks, that they rent;

and I saw mountains tumbling into pieces;

and I saw the plains of the earth, that they were broken up;

and I saw many cities that they were sunk;

and I saw many that they were burned with fire;

and I saw many that did tumble to the earth, because of the quaking thereof.



1 Nephi 12:20

And it came to pass that I beheld, and saw the people of the seed of my brethren

that they had overcome my seed;

and they went forth in multitudes upon the face of the land.



1 Nephi 13:30

Nevertheless, thou beholdest that the Gentiles

who have gone forth out of captivity,

and have been lifted up by the power of God

above all other nations, upon the face of the land

which is choice above all other lands,

which is the land that the Lord God hath covenanted with thy father

that his seed should have for the land of their inheritance;

wherefore, thou seest that the Lord God will not suffer

that the Gentiles will utterly destroy the mixture of thy seed,

which are among thy brethren.
