2 Nephi 3:4, 5, 7, 13, 21

2 Nephi 3:4

For behold, thou art the fruit of my loins;

and I am a descendant of Joseph who was carried captive into Egypt.

And great were the covenants of the Lord which he made unto Joseph.

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 3:7

Yea, Joseph truly said:

Thus saith the Lord unto me:

A choice seer will I raise up out of the fruit of thy loins;

and he shall be esteemed highly among the fruit of thy loins.

And unto him will I give commandment

that he shall do a work for the fruit of thy loins, his brethren,

which shall be of great worth unto them,

even to the bringing of them to the knowledge of the covenants

which I have made with thy fathers.

2 Nephi 3:13

And out of weakness he shall be made strong, in that day

when my work shall commence among all my people,

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

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.
