"I will make a man more precious thanfine gold; even a man than the
golden wedge of Ophir."
2 Nephi 23:12
"And the time cometh speedily that the righteous must be led up as
calves of the stall, and the Holy One of Israel must reign in the
dominion, and might, and power, and great glory. And he gathereth
his children from the four quarters of the eart; and he numbereth his
sheep, and they know him; and there shall be one fold and one shepherd;
and he shall feed his sheep, and in him they shall find pasture."
1 Nephi 22:24-25
"For can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have
compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, they may forget, yet will I
not forget thee, O house of Israel. Behold, I have graven thee upon
the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me."
1 Nephi 21:15-16
"And the angel said unto me: Behold the Lamb of God, yea, even the
Son of the Eternal Father! Knowest thou the meaning of the tree which
thy father saw? And I answered him, saying: Yea, it is the love of
God, which sheddeth itself abroad in the hearts of the children of
men; wherefore, it is the most desirable above all things. And he
spake unto me, saying: Yea, and the most joyous to the soul."
1 Nephi 11:21-23
