11:36 And it came to pass that I saw and bear record, that the great
and spacious building was the pride of the world; and it fell, and the
fall thereof was exceedingly great. And the angel of the Lord spake
unto me again, saying: Thus shall be the destruction of all nations,
kindreds, tongues, and people, that shall fight against the twelve
apostles of the Lamb.
1 Nephi Chapter 12
12:1 And it came to pass that the angel said unto me: Look, and behold
thy seed, and also the seed of thy brethren. And I looked and beheld
the land of promise; and I beheld multitudes of people, yea, even as it
were in number as many as the sand of the sea.
12:2 And it came to pass that I beheld multitudes gathered together to
battle, one against the other; and I beheld wars, and rumors of wars,
and great slaughters with the sword among my people.
12:3 And it came to pass that I beheld many generations pass away,
after the manner of wars and contentions in the land; and I beheld many
cities, yea, even that I did not number them.
12:4 And it came to pass that I saw a mist of darkness on the face of
the land of promise; and I saw lightnings, and I heard thunderings, and
earthquakes, and all manner of tumultuous noises; and I saw the earth
and the rocks, that they rent; and I saw mountains tumbling into
pieces; and I saw the plains of the earth, that they were broken up;
and I saw many cities that they were sunk; and I saw many that they
were burned with fire; and I saw many that did tumble to the earth,
because of the quaking thereof.
12:5 And it came to pass after I saw these things, I saw the vapor of
darkness, that it passed from off the face of the earth; and behold, I
saw multitudes who had not fallen because of the great and terrible
judgments of the Lord.
12:6 And I saw the heavens open, and the Lamb of God descending out of
heaven; and he came down and showed himself unto them.
12:7 And I also saw and bear record that the Holy Ghost fell upon
twelve others; and they were ordained of God, and chosen.
12:8 And the angel spake unto me, saying: Behold the twelve disciples
of the Lamb, who are chosen to minister unto thy seed.
12:9 And he said unto me: Thou rememberest the twelve apostles of the
Lamb? Behold they are they who shall judge the twelve tribes of Israel;
wherefore, the twelve ministers of thy seed shall be judged of them;
for ye are of the house of Israel.
12:10 And these twelve ministers whom thou beholdest shall judge thy
seed. And, behold, they are righteous forever; for because of their
faith in the Lamb of God their garments are made white in his blood.
12:11 And the angel said unto me: Look! And I looked, and beheld three
generations pass away in righteousness; and their garments were white
even like unto the Lamb of God. And the angel said unto me: These are
made white in the blood of the Lamb, because of their faith in him.
12:12 And I, Nephi, also saw many of the fourth generation who passed
away in righteousness.
