2 Nephi 3:1

And now I speak unto you, Joseph, my last-born.

Thou wast born in the wilderness of mine afflictions;

yea, in the days of my greatest sorrow did thy mother bear thee.

2 Nephi 3:5

Wherefore, Joseph truly saw our day.

And he obtained a promise of the Lord,

that out of the fruit of his loins

the Lord God would raise up a righteous branch unto the house of Israel;

not the Messiah, but a branch which was to be broken off,

nevertheless, to be remembered in the covenants of the Lord

that the Messiah should be made manifest unto them in the latter days,

in the spirit of power, unto the bringing of them out of darkness unto light —

yea, out of hidden darkness and out of captivity unto freedom.

2 Nephi 3:8

And I will give unto him a commandment

that he shall do none other work,

save the work which I shall command him.

And I will make him great in mine eyes;

for he shall do my work.

2 Nephi 3:12

Wherefore, the fruit of thy loins shall write;

and the fruit of the loins of Judah shall write;

and that which shall be written by the fruit of thy loins,

and also that which shall be written by the fruit of the loins of Judah,

shall grow together, unto the confounding of false doctrines

and laying down of contentions,

and establishing peace among the fruit of thy loins,

and bringing them to the knowledge of their fathers in the latter days,

and also to the knowledge of my covenants, saith the Lord.

2 Nephi 3:13

when my work shall commence among all my people,

unto the restoring thee, O house of Israel, saith the Lord.

2 Nephi 3:17

And the Lord hath said:

I will raise up a Moses;

and I will give power unto him in a rod;

and I will give judgment unto him in writing.

Yet I will not loose his tongue, that he shall speak much,

for I will not make him mighty in speaking.

But I will write unto him my law, by the finger of mine own hand;

and I will make a spokesman for him.

2 Nephi 3:19

And the words which he shall write shall be the words

which are expedient in my wisdom should go forth unto the fruit of thy loins.

And it shall be as if the fruit of thy loins had cried unto them from the dust;

for I know their faith.

2 Nephi 3:21

Because of their faith their words shall proceed forth out of my mouth

unto their brethren who are the fruit of thy loins;

and the weakness of their words will I make strong in their faith,

unto the remembering of my covenant which I made unto thy fathers.

2 Nephi 3:24

And there shall rise up one mighty among them,

who shall do much good, both in word and in deed,

being an instrument in the hands of God,

with exceeding faith, to work mighty wonders,

and do that thing which is great in the sight of God,

unto the bringing to pass much restoration

unto the house of Israel, and unto the seed of thy brethren.
