Mosiah 11:20

And it came to pass that there was a man among them whose name was Abinadi;

and he went forth among them, and began to prophesy, saying:

Behold, thus saith the Lord, and thus hath he commanded me, saying,

Go forth, and say unto this people,

thus saith the Lord —

Wo be unto this people,

for I have seen their abominations, and their wickedness, and their whoredoms;

and except they repent I will visit them in mine anger.

Mosiah 12:1

And it came to pass that after the space of two years

that Abinadi came among them in disguise,

that they knew him not,

and began to prophesy among them, saying:

Thus has the Lord commanded me, saying —

Abinadi, go and prophesy unto this my people,

for they have hardened their hearts against my words;

they have repented not of their evil doings;

therefore, I will visit them in my anger,

yea, in my fierce anger will I visit them in their iniquities and abominations.

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 12:8

And it shall come to pass that except they repent

I will utterly destroy them from off the face of the earth;

yet they shall leave a record behind them,

and I will preserve them for other nations which shall possess the land;

yea, even this will I do

that I may discover the abominations of this people to other nations.

And many things did Abinadi prophesy against this people.

Mosiah 12:29

And again he said unto them:

If ye teach the law of Moses

why do ye not keep it?

Why do ye set your hearts upon riches?

Why do ye commit whoredoms and spend your strength with harlots,

yea, and cause this people to commit sin,

that the Lord has cause to send me to prophesy against this people,

yea, even a great evil against this people?
