2 Nephi 17:18 18 And it shall come to pass in that day that the Lord shall hiss for the fly that is in the uttermost part of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.

2 Nephi 17:19 19 And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes.

2 Nephi 17:20 20 In the same day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired, by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.

2 Nephi 17:21 21 And it shall come to pass in that day, a man shall nourish a young cow and two sheep;

2 Nephi 17:22 22 And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk they shall give he shall eat butter; for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land.

2 Nephi 17:23 23 And it shall come to pass in that day, every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, which shall be for briers and thorns.

2 Nephi 17:24 24 With arrows and with bows shall men come thither, because all the land shall become briers and thorns.

2 Nephi 17:25 25 And all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and the treading of lesser cattle.

2 Nephi 18 Chapter 18

2 Nephi 18:1 1 Moreover, the word of the Lord said unto me:  Take thee a great roll, and write in it with a man’s pen, concerning Maher-shalal-hash-baz.

2 Nephi 18:2 2 And I took unto me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.

2 Nephi 18:3 3 And I went unto the prophetess; and she conceived and bare a son.  Then said the Lord to me:  Call his name, Maher-shalal-hash-baz.

2 Nephi 18:4 4 For behold, the child shall not have knowledge to cry, My father, and my mother, before the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be taken away before the king of Assyria.

2 Nephi 18:5 5 The Lord spake also unto me again, saying: 

2 Nephi 18:6 6 Forasmuch as this people refuseth the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah’s son;

2 Nephi 18:7 7 Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the river, strong and many, even the king of Assyria and all his glory; and he shall come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks.

2 Nephi 18:8 8 And he shall pass through Judah; he shall overflow and go over, he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel.

2 Nephi 18:9 9 Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in pieces; and give ear all ye of far countries; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces.
