1 Nephi 10:8

Yea, even he should go forth and cry in the wilderness:

Prepare ye the way of the Lord, and make his paths straight;

for there standeth one among you whom ye know not;

and he is mightier than I,

whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

And much spake my father concerning this thing.

1 Nephi 10:17

And it came to pass after I, Nephi, having heard all the words of my father,

concerning the things which he saw in a vision,

and also the things which he spake by the power of the Holy Ghost,

which power he received by faith on the Son of God

— and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come —

I, Nephi, was desirous also

that I might see, and hear, and know of these things, by the power of the Holy Ghost,

which is the gift of God unto all those who diligently seek him,

as well in times of old

as in the time that he should manifest himself unto the children of men.
