2 Nephi 15:25 25 Therefore, is the anger of the Lord kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them; and the hills did tremble, and their carcasses were torn in the midst of the streets.  For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

2 Nephi 15:26 26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth; and behold, they shall come with speed swiftly; none shall be weary nor stumble among them.

2 Nephi 15:27 27 None shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken;

2 Nephi 15:28 28 Whose arrows shall be sharp, and all their bows bent, and their horses’ hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind, their roaring like a lion.

2 Nephi 15:29 29 They shall roar like young lions; yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry away safe, and none shall deliver.

2 Nephi 15:30 30 And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring of the sea; and if they look unto the land, behold, darkness and sorrow, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof.

2 Nephi 16 Chapter 16

2 Nephi 16:1 1 In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.

2 Nephi 16:2 2 Above it stood the seraphim; each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.

2 Nephi 16:3 3 And one cried unto another, and said:  Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of Hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.

2 Nephi 16:4 4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.

2 Nephi 16:5 5 Then said I:  Wo is unto me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips; and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of Hosts.

2 Nephi 16:6 6 Then flew one of the seraphim unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;

2 Nephi 16:7 7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said:  Lo, this has touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.

2 Nephi 16:8 8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying:  Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?  Then I said:  Here am I; send me.

2 Nephi 16:9 9 And he said:  Go and tell this people—­Hear ye indeed, but they understood not; and see ye indeed, but they perceived not.

2 Nephi 16:10 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes—­lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted and be healed.

2 Nephi 16:11 11 Then said I:  Lord, how long?  And he said:  Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate;
