2 Nephi 8:3



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.



2 Nephi 8:3

For the Lord shall comfort Zion,

he will comfort all her waste places;

and he will make her wilderness like Eden,

and her desert like the garden of the Lord.

Joy and gladness shall be found therein,

thanksgiving and the voice of melody.
