152 Behold, I am full of the Spirit of God insomuch as if my frame had no strength."

153 And now it came to pass that when I had spoken these words, they were angry with me and were desirous to throw me into the depths of the sea;

154 And as they came forth to lay their hands upon me, I spake unto them, saying: "In the name of the Almighty God I command you that ye touch me not, for I am filled with the power of God even unto the consuming of my flesh;

155 And whoso shall lay their hands upon me shall wither even as a dried weed, And he shall be as naught before the power of God, for God shall smite him."

156 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, saith unto them that they should murmur no more against their father, Neither should they withhold their labor from me, for God had commanded me that I should build a ship.

157 And I saith unto them: "If God had commanded me to do all things, I could do it;

158 If He should command me that I should say unto this water, 'Be thou earth! '-And it shall be earth; And if I should say it, it would be done.

159 "And now, if the Lord hath such great power and hath wrought so many miracles among the children of men, How is it that He cannot instruct me that I should build a ship?"

160 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,

161 Neither durst they lay their hands upon me nor touch me with their fingers, even for the space of many days;

162 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.
