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.

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

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.

but to the convincing them of my word,

which shall have already gone forth among them.

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.

I will raise up unto the fruit of thy loins;

and I will make for him a spokesman.

unto the fruit of thy loins;

and the spokesman of thy loins shall declare it.
