2 Nephi 18:19 -- "And when they shall say unto you: Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep and mutter—should not a people seek unto their God for the living to hear from the dead?"
The wizards that peep and mutter, the sages of wealth and prestige;
the counselors deep in delusion, the scribe that rejects his own liege.
These are the advocates paltry that all the world runs off to hear;
back of them spirits indiff'rent, full of cheap thought and small beer.
Come to the mainspring of reason, enter the halls of the just;
quench all your doubts with the treasure that never reverts back to dust.
Flee not from Majesty awful, dare to look to the living Yahweh;
His counsel cannot be confounded, He'll befriend even those that do stray.
His waters are spacious and placid; they'll take you where you want to go.
So jettison wizards and mages; allow God your barky to tow!
