1 Nephi 3:29

And it came to pass as they smote us with a rod,

behold, an angel of the Lord came and stood before them,

and he spake unto them, saying:

Why do ye smite your younger brother with a rod?

Know ye not that the Lord hath chosen him to be a ruler over you,

and this because of your iniquities?

Behold ye shall go up to Jerusalem again,

and the Lord will deliver Laban into your hands.



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 4:17

And again, I knew that the Lord had delivered Laban into my hands for this cause —

that I might obtain the records according to his commandments.
