Ether 2:9

And now, we can behold the decrees of God concerning this land,

that it is a land of promise;

and whatsoever nation shall possess it shall serve God,

or they shall be swept off

when the fulness of his wrath shall come upon them.

And the fulness of his wrath cometh upon them

when they are ripened in iniquity.

Ether 2:10

For behold, this is a land which is choice above all other lands;

wherefore he that doth possess it shall serve God or shall be swept off;

for it is the everlasting decree of God.

And it is not until the fulness of iniquity among the children of the land,

that they are swept off.

Ether 2:12

Behold, this is a choice land,

and whatsoever nation shall possess it

shall be free from bondage, and from captivity,

and from all other nations under heaven,

if they will but serve the God of the land, who is Jesus Christ,

who hath been manifested by the things which we have written.
