Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 5:14
"did take the sword of Laban, and after the manner of it did make many swords"
Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 4:9
"And I beheld his sword, and I drew it forth from the sheath thereof; and the hilt thereof was of pure gold, and the workmanship thereof was exceedingly fine"

1 Nephi 4:9 does NOT contain the phrase 'sword of Laban' — it says only 'his sword'. The only shared word is 'sword', so typed paraphrase, not shared-phrasing. The link rests on 2 Nephi 5:14's explicit referential naming ('the sword of Laban') back to the 1 Nephi 4 object.
