3 Nephi 27:32
but behold, it sorroweth me
because of the fourth generation from this generation,
for they are led away captive by him
even as was the son of perdition;
for they will sell me for silver and for gold,
and for that which moth doth corrupt
and which thieves can break through and steal.
And in that day will I visit them,
even in turning their works upon their own heads.

and many there be that travel therein,
until the night cometh, wherein no man can work.

when I shall come in my glory with the powers of heaven.

but when I shall come in my glory
ye shall be changed in the twinkling of an eye from mortality to immortality;

according to the record which hath been given —

to that which shall take place at the last day;

and that the powers of the earth could not hold them.

to go no more out, but to dwell with God eternally in the heavens.
