Excerpt from Mother Stories From the Book of Mormon But Laman and Lemuel were not at all like their brothers. They did not obey their parents, but often vexed them by doing things that were wrong. That was displeasing to our Heavenly Father and He did not love Laman and Lemuel as He loved Sam and Nephi. The people who lived in the same place as Lehi were wicked. They would not do as the Lord wished, so He said He would have to punish them, to teach them to do better. He told Lehi to go out among them, and to tell them that if they did not stop doing wicked things, He would not bless them as He had done, but would let people from another country come and take them away to be their servants.
