1 Nephi 18:13

Wherefore, they knew not whither they should steer the ship,

insomuch that there arose a great storm,

yea, a great and terrible tempest,

and we were driven back upon the waters for the space of three days;

and they began to be frightened exceedingly

lest they should be drowned in the sea;

nevertheless they did not loose me.

1 Nephi 18:15

And it came to pass that we were about to be swallowed up in the depths of the sea.

And after we had been driven back upon the waters for the space of four days,

my brethren began to see that the judgments of God were upon them,

and that they must perish save that they should repent of their iniquities;

wherefore, they came unto me, and loosed the bands which were upon my wrists,

and behold they had swollen exceedingly;

and also mine ankles were much swollen,

and great was the soreness thereof.
