1 Nephi 18
The Book of Mormon for Beginners
During the eight years they were in the wilderness, Lehi and Sariah had two more sons: Jacob and Joseph. While they were still very young, Nephi and his older brothers finished building the boat. Everybody got aboard, and then they set off across the ocean. After a while, Laman and some others started getting a bit rowdy, and Nephi told them to shape up. That made them so mad that they tied him up for four days. In that time, their compass stopped working and a huge storm came up. It got so bad that Lehi and Sariah nearly died, and Jacob and Joseph had a hard time because their mom was so sick. Everyone begged Laman and Lemuel to let up, but only the storm was finally able to convince them. In the end, they let Nephi go, and he prayed away the storm and then navigated the ship safely to the promised land.
