1 Nephi 2:11

Now this he spake because of the stiffneckedness of Laman and Lemuel;

for behold they did murmur in many things against their father,

because he was a visionary man,

and had led them out of the land of Jerusalem,

to leave the land of their inheritance,

and their gold, and their silver, and their precious things,

to perish in the wilderness.

And this they said he had done

because of the foolish imaginations of his heart.

1 Nephi 5:2

For she had supposed that we had perished in the wilderness;

and she also had complained against my father,

telling him that he was a visionary man; saying:

Behold thou hast led us forth from the land of our inheritance,

and my sons are no more, and we perish in the wilderness.

1 Nephi 5:4

And it had come to pass that my father spake unto her, saying:

I know that I am a visionary man;

for if I had not seen the things of God in a vision

I should not have known the goodness of God,

but had tarried at Jerusalem, and had perished with my brethren.
