Bible References to
The Book Of Mormon 

Genesis 49:22-26
Joseph's branches to run over the wall and receive blessings in the lands of the everlasting hills; the Nephite crossing of the ocean wall is a plausible fulfillment, as both Lehi and Ishmeal were decendants of Joseph. 2 Nephi 3:3-5
Isaiah 29:2-4
A people of the Lord is to be brought down, and yes these are to speak low out of the dust; also, their voice shall be as one that hath a familiar spirit. The Nephite nation was virtually destroyed; yet the record was preserved and has come forth as the Book of Mormon, which teaches essentially the same doctrine as the Bible. 2 Nephi 3:19-20; 33:13
Isaiah 29:11-14
Vision of all as the words of a book that is sealed; fulfilled in sealed portion of the Gold Plates of Mormon and the Charles Anthon incedent, in which the words of this book were taken to one who was learned. 2 Nephi 27:15-20; JS-H 1:63-65 Ezekiel 37:15-20
The stick of Judah -- which is the Bible -- and the stick of Joseph -- which is The Book of Mormon -- are to be joined as one in the hand of the Lord; the Bible is essentially the story of the decendants of Judah whereas the Book of Mormon is essentially the story of the decendants of Joseph. In ancient times books written on scrolls and then rolled onto a stick. 2 Nephi 3:12
John 10:15-16
 Other "sheep" are to be visited by Christ, the good Shepard; Christ fulfilled this promise when He visited the Nephites on this continent, as He makes clear in Matthew 15:24. 3 Nephi 15:11-24
Acts 10:40-42 / 2 Cor 13:1

John the Revelator saw that an angel was to fly through the midst of heaven carrying the everlasting gospel; this could have been fulfilled through the Angel Moroni, who gave the plates of the Book of Mormon to Joseph Smith: The Book of Mormon, of course, does contrain the everlasting gospel. JS-H 1:34-35
