1 Nephi 17:47

Behold, my soul is rent with anguish because of you,

and my heart is pained;

I fear lest ye shall be cast off forever.

Behold, I am full of the Spirit of God,

insomuch that my frame has no strength.

1 Nephi 17:52

And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said many things unto my brethren,

insomuch that they were confounded and could not contend against me;

neither durst they lay their hands upon me nor touch me with their fingers,

even for the space of many days.

Now they durst not do this lest they should wither before me,

so powerful was the Spirit of God;

and thus it had wrought upon them.

1 Nephi 18:10

And I, Nephi, began to fear exceedingly lest the Lord should be angry with us,

and smite us because of our iniquity,

that we should be swallowed up in the depths of the sea;

wherefore, I, Nephi, began to speak to them with much soberness;

but behold they were angry with me, saying:

We will not that our younger brother shall be a ruler over us.

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.
