1 Nephi 3:31

And after the angel had departed,

Laman and Lemuel again began to murmur, saying:

How is it possible that the Lord will deliver Laban into our hands?

Behold, he is a mighty man, and he can command fifty,

yea, even he can slay fifty; then why not us?



1 Nephi 4:1

And it came to pass that I spake unto my brethren, saying:

Let us go up again unto Jerusalem,

and let us be faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord;

for behold he is mightier than all the earth,

then why not mightier than Laban and his fifty,

yea, or even than his tens of thousands?
