3 Nephi 1:6

And they began to rejoice over their brethren, saying:

Behold the time is past, and the words of Samuel are not fulfilled;

therefore, your joy and your faith concerning this thing hath been vain.

3 Nephi 1:8

But behold, they did watch steadfastly for that day and that night and that day

which should be as one day as if there were no night,

that they might know that their faith had not been vain.

3 Nephi 2:2

Imagining up some vain thing in their hearts,

that it was wrought by men and by the power of the devil,

to lead away and deceive the hearts of the people;

and thus did Satan get possession of the hearts of the people again,

insomuch that he did blind their eyes

and lead them away to believe

that the doctrine of Christ was a foolish and a vain thing.
