2 Nephi 32:4

Wherefore, now after that I have spoken these words, if ye cannot understand them, it will be because ye ask not, neither do ye knock; wherefore, ye are not brought into the light, but must perish in the dark.
Changes
Wherefore, now after that I have spoken these words, if ye cannot understand them, it will be because ye ask not, neither do ye knock; wherefore, ye are not brought into the light, but must perish in the dark.
Simple English
So if you don’t understand what I said, it’s because you don’t ask and you don’t knock. You are not brought into the light. You will die in the dark.
Paraphrase
So if what I’ve said doesn’t make sense to you, it’s because you’re not asking. You’re not knocking. And if you don’t ask, you’ll stay in the dark and be lost.
