Laman and Lemuel
In the Book of Mormon, Laman (/ˈleɪ.mən/) and Lemuel (/ˈlɛm.juːl/) are the two eldest sons of Lehi and the older brothers of Sam, Nephi, Jacob, and Joseph. According to the text, they lived around 600 BC. They were notable for their rebellion against Lehi and Nephi, becoming the primary antagonists of the First and Second Books of Nephi. They and their descendants became known as the Lamanites, while the descendants of Nephi and their other brothers became the Nephites.
Laman was Lehi's first-born son. He rejected the teachings of his father (in particular Lehi's prophecy of the forthcoming destruction of Jerusalem in 600 BC). He and Lemuel persecuted and beat their brothers Sam and Nephi, who supported Lehi. Because God chose Nephi to lead Lehi's descendants after his death, Laman maintained that he had been robbed of his birthright, resulting in constant wars between the two peoples for nearly 600 years.
God intervening
In the Book of Mormon there are incidences of Laman and Lemuel beating or binding up Nephi. On the first occurrence, when they were beating Nephi and Sam with a rod, it tells how an angel visited the brothers, and the angel rebuked Laman and Lemuel. On other occasions, Laman and Lemuel were chastened by the voice of the Lord, or "shocked" by divine power.
Lemuel (biblical king)
Lemuel (Hebrew: לְמוּאֵל Ləmû’ēl, "belonging to El") is the name of a Biblical king mentioned in Proverbs 31:1 and 4, but otherwise unknown.
The opening verse of Proverbs 31 reads: "The words of king Lemuel. The vision wherewith his mother instructed him." The name occurs again in verse 4: "Give not to kings, O Lemuel, give not wine to kings ..." The discourse, which is an exhortation to chastity, justice, mercy and temperance, appears to end with verse 9, but might continue through the end of the book. Nothing else is found in scriptures concerning Lemuel aside from these two mentions in beginning of Proverbs 31. Jewish legend identifies him as Solomon, taking this advice from his mother Bathsheba; but there is no clear evidence for that.
The widely used Strong's concordance, a reference work that assigns a unique reference number to every Biblical Hebrew word and its English translation, states that Lemuel is Hebrew word 3927, related to words 3926 and 410 and means "(belonging) to God; Lemuel or Lemoel, a symbolic name of Solomon: -Lemuel." Other Bible commentators concur with Strong's: Easton's Bible Dictionary, Hitchcock's Bible Names, Smith's Bible Dictionary and Nave's Topical Bible.

LOVE IS BLIND
by: Limahl(INTRO)
Love is blind
Blind is love
(VERSE 1)
I’ve played the fool
Too long now for you
Take a last look at my face
Yes, I’ve found someone to take your place
(BRIDGE)
Goodbye lover
Lover goodbye
(CHORUS)
Love is blind
When you’re torn between the truth and lies
Love is blind
And the truth is staring you right in the eye
(Love is blind)
Love is blind
(VERSE 2)
By the rules we are bound
And they say what goes, comes around
There’s no loss without gain
And I’ve learned my lessons through the pain
(REPEAT BRIDGE)
Goodbye lover
Lover goodbye
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Love is blind
When you’re torn between the truth and lies
Love is blind
And the truth is staring you right in the eye
(Love is blind)
Love is blind
(MIDDLE)
Lover goodbye
Lover goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
(FINAL CHORUS)
Love is blind
When you’re torn between the truth and lies
Love is blind
And the truth is staring you right in the eye
(Love is blind)
Love is blind
Love is blind
