2 Nephi 6:7

And kings shall be thy nursing fathers,

and their queens thy nursing mothers;

they shall bow down to thee with their faces towards the earth,

and lick up the dust of thy feet;

and thou shalt know that I am the Lord;

for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

2 Nephi 6:13

Wherefore, they that fight against Zion and the covenant people of the Lord

shall lick up the dust of their feet;

and the people of the Lord shall not be ashamed.

For the people of the Lord are they who wait for him;

for they still wait for the coming of the Messiah.

2 Nephi 7:2

Wherefore, when I came, there was no man;

when I called, yea, there was none to answer.

O house of Israel, is my hand shortened at all that it cannot redeem,

or have I no power to deliver?

Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea,

I make their rivers a wilderness and their fish to stink

because the waters are dried up, and they die because of thirst.
