And it came to pass when
Jesus had said these words,
he spake unto his disciples, one by one,
saying unto them:
What is it that ye desire of me,
after that I am gone to the Father?
And they all spake, save it were three, saying:
We desire that after we have lived unto the age of man,
that our ministry, wherein thou hast called us,
may have an end, that we may speedily
come unto thee in thy kingdom.
And he said unto them:
Blessed are ye because ye desired this thing of me;
therefore, after that ye are seventy and two years old
ye shall come unto me in my kingdom;
and with me ye shall find rest.
(3 Nephi 28:1-3)
