1 Nephi 17:1

And it came to pass that we did again take our journey in the wilderness;

and we did travel nearly eastward from that time forth.

And we did travel and wade through much affliction in the wilderness;

and our women did bear children in the wilderness.

and our women did bear children in the wilderness.
