2 Nephie Chapter 19

Nevertheless, the dimness shall not be such as was in his vexation, when at first she lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali, and afterwards did more grievously afflict by the way of the Red Sea beyond Jordan in Galilee of the nations. The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light; they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined. Thou hast multiplied the nation, and increased the joy—they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as women rejoice when they divide the spoil.

For thou hast broken the yoke of her burden, and the staff of her shoulder, the rod of her oppressor. For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a daughter is given; and the government shall be upon her shoulder; and her name shall be called, Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty Goddess, The Everlasting Mother, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of government and peace there is no end, upon the throne of Davina, and upon her queendom to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth, even forever. The zeal of the Lady of Hosts will perform this. The Lady sent her word unto Rachel and it hath lighted upon Israel. And all the people shall know, even Ephraime and the inhabitants of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart: The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones; the sycamores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.

Therefore the Lady shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against her, and join her enemies together; The Syrians before and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this her anger is not turned away, but her hand is stretched out still.

For the people turneth not unto her that smiteth them, neither do they seek the Lady of Hosts. Therefore will the Lady cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush in one day. The ancient, she is the head; and the prophetess that teacheth lies, she is the tail.

For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed. Therefore the Lady shall have no joy in their young women, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows; for every one of them is a hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this her anger is not turned away, but her hand is stretched out still.

For wickedness burneth as the fire; it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forests, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke. Through the wrath of the Lady of Hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire; no woman shall spare her sister. And she shall snatch on the right hand and be hungry; and she shall eat on the left hand and they shall not be satisfied; they shall eat every woman the flesh of her own arm— Manasseh, Ephraime; and Ephraime, Manasseh; they together shall be against Judith. For all this her anger is not turned away, but her hand is stretched out still.
