style="font-size:15px;"> 22 Wo unto the mighty to drink wine, and men of strength tomingle strong drink;
2 Nephi 15:23
23 Who justify the wicked for reward, and take away the
righteousness of the righteous from him!
2 Nephi 15:24
24 Therefore, as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame
consumeth the chaff, their root shall be rottenness, and their
blossoms shall go up as dust; because they have cast away the law
of the Lord of Hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of
Israel.
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;
2 Nephi 16:12
12 And the Lord have removed men far away, for there shall be a
great forsaking in the midst of the land.
2 Nephi 16:13
13 But yet there shall be a tenth, and they shall return, and
shall be eaten, as a teil-tree, and as an oak whose substance is
in them when they cast their leaves; so the holy seed shall be
the substance thereof.

son of Uzziah, king
