2 Nephi 23: The World will be Destroyed

The burden against Babylon. (‘Burden’ = an important message causing sorrow.) An army comes against Babylon. A day of the Lord is promised – great slaughter shall occur, and humans will be more rare than gold. The Medes will be stirred up against Babylon. Babylon will be laid waste, and populated only by wild beasts.

“For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.” (2 Nephi 23:10)

“There for I [God] will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place…” (2 Nephi 23:13)

“…every man’s heart shall melt…” (2 Nephi 23:7)

In the Last Days we shall see great wonders in the skies, the stars and the moon shall cease to give light and/or shall be darkened. The heavens and the earth shall move out of her place (earthquakes) and mankind shall lose their hearts. Look around the world today and it is easy to see that people have lost their hearts.
