17 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did cause my people to be aindustrious, and to blabor with their chands.• • •21 And he had caused the acursing to come upon them, yea, even a sore cursing, because of their iniquity.

And he knoweth their faith, for in his name could they remove bmountains; and in his name could they cause the earth to shake; and by the power of his word did they cause cprisons to tumble to the earth; yea, even the fiery furnace could not harm them, neither wild beasts nor poisonous serpents, because of the power of his word.
