2 Nephi 8:76 And I will lay it waste. It shall not be pruned nor digged, but there shall come up
briers and thorns. I will also command the clouds, that they rain no rain upon it."
2 Nephi 9:38 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 9:78 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.
