1 Nephi 7:8

And now I, Nephi, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts,

therefore I spake unto them, saying,

yea, even unto Laman and unto Lemuel:

Behold ye are mine elder brethren,

and how is it that ye are so hard in your hearts, and so blind in your minds,

that ye have need that I, your younger brother, should speak unto you,

yea, and set an example for you?

that the Lord is able to do all things

according to his will, for the children of men,

1 Nephi 7:19

And it came to pass that they were angry with me again,

and sought to lay hands upon me;

but behold, one of the daughters of Ishmael,

yea, and also her mother, and one of the sons of Ishmael,

did plead with my brethren,

insomuch that they did soften their hearts;

and they did cease striving to take away my life.

and I beheld that it was most sweet, above all that I ever before tasted.

Yea, and I beheld that the fruit thereof was white,

to exceed all the whiteness that I had ever seen.
