What an admirable soul Nephi is! Once underway crossing the ocean in the ship
Nephi built, to stop his righteous example and allow them to party in as
lascivious a way as they pleased, Laman and Lemuel restrained Nephi by tying up
his wrists and ankles so tightly that he couldn't even move. A very dangerous storm came up and three
horrific days at sea passed before Laman and Lemuel decided to release
Nephi. And even though his wrists and
ankles were swollen and very sore, according to verse 16 Nephi hadn’t
complained, but had only found reason to praise God in his prayers while he was
bound.
