Mosiah 11:19,

Mosiah 12:2, 7, 12

Mosiah 11:19

And now, because of this great victory

they were lifted up in the pride of their hearts;

they did boast in their own strength,

saying that their fifty could stand against thousands of the Lamanites;

and thus they did boast, and did delight

in blood, and the shedding of the blood of their brethren,

and this because of the wickedness of their king and priests.

Mosiah 12:2

Yea, wo be unto this generation!

And the Lord said unto me:

Stretch forth thy hand and prophesy, saying:

Thus saith the Lord,

it shall come to pass that this generation, because of their iniquities,

shall be brought into bondage, and shall be smitten on the cheek;

yea, and shall be driven by men, and shall be slain;

and the vultures of the air, and the dogs,

yea, and the wild beasts,

shall devour their flesh.

Mosiah 12:7

And they shall be smitten with a great pestilence —

and all this will I do because of their iniquities and abominations.

Mosiah 12:12

And again, he saith thou shalt be as the blossoms of a thistle,

which, when it is fully ripe, if the wind bloweth,

it is driven forth upon the face of the land.

And he pretendeth the Lord hath spoken it.

And he saith all this shall come upon thee except thou repent,

and this because of thine iniquities.
