THE SECOND BOOK OF NEPHI

CHAPTER 15

24 Therefore, as the ^afire devoureth the ^bstubble, and the flame consumeth the ^cchaff, their ^droot shall be rottenness, and their blossoms shall go up as dust; because they have cast away the law of the Lord of Hosts, and ^edespised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

24a	Obad. 1: 18. 18 And the house of Jacob shall be a ^afire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of ^bEsau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the Lord hath spoken it. 2 Ne. 20: 17. 17 And the light of Israel shall be for a ^afire, and his Holy One for a flame, and shall burn and shall devour his thorns and his briers in one day; 3 Ne. 20: 16. 16 Then shall ye, who are a ^aremnant of the house of Jacob, go forth among them; and ye shall be in the midst of them who shall be many; and ye shall be among them as a lion among the beasts of the forest, and as a young ^blion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he goeth through both ^ctreadeth down and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.
b	Joel 2: 5. 5 Like the ^anoise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the ^bstubble, as a strong people set in battle array. 1 Ne. 22: 15 (15, 23) 15 For behold, saith the prophet, the time cometh speedily that Satan shall have no more power over the hearts of the children of men; for the day soon cometh that all the proud and they who do wickedly shall be as ^astubble; and the day cometh that they must be ^bburned. 2 Ne. 26: 6 (4, 6) 6 And they shall be visited with thunderings, and lightnings, and earthquakes, and all manner of destructions, for the ^afire of the anger of the Lord shall be kindled against them, and they shall be as stubble, and the day that cometh shall consume them, saith the Lord of Hosts. D&C 64: 24 (23-24) 24 For after today cometh the ^aburning—this is speaking after the manner of the Lord—for verily I say, tomorrow all the ^bproud and they that do wickedly shall be as ^cstubble; and I will burn them up, for I am the Lord of Hosts; and I will not ^dspare any that remain in ^eBabylon. D&C 133: 64. 64 And also that which was written by the prophet ^aMalachi: For, behold, the ^bday cometh that shall ^cburn as an oven, and all the proud, yea, and all that do ^dwickedly, shall be stubble; and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
c	Luke 3: 17. 17 Whose ^afan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his ^bgarner; but the ^cchaff he will burn with fire unquenchable. Mosiah 7: 30 (29-31) 30 And again, he saith: If my people shall sow ^afilthiness they shall ^breap the ^cchaff thereof in the whirlwind; and the effect thereof is poison.
d	Job 18: 16 (16-21) 16 His ^aroots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off.
e	2 Sam. 12: 9 (7-9) 9 Wherefore hast thou ^adespised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? thou hast ^bkilled ^cUriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his ^dwife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
