126 And I spake unto him as if it had been Laban.
127 And I also spake unto him that I should carry the engravings which were upon the plates of brass to my elder brethren which were without the wall.
128 And I also bade him that he should follow me;
129 And he supposing that I spake of the brethren of the church and that I was truly that Laban whom I had slain, wherefore, he did follow me;
130 And he spake unto me many times concerning the elders of the Jews as I went forth unto my brethren which were without the wall.
131 And it came to pass that when Laman saw me, he was exceedingly frightened, and also Lemuel and Sam,
132 And they fled from before my presence, For they supposed it was Laban and that he had slain me and had sought to take away their lives also.
133 And it came to pass that I called after them and they did hear me; Wherefore, they did cease to flee from my presence.
134 And it came to pass that when the servant of Laban beheld my brethren, he began to tremble and was about to flee from before me and return to the City of Jerusalem.
135 And now I, Nephi, being a man large in stature, and also having received much strength of the Lord, Therefore, I did seize upon the servant of Laban and held him that he should not flee.
136 And it came to pass that I spake with him, that if he would hearken unto my words as the Lord liveth and as I live Even so, that if he would hearken unto our words, we would spare his life.
