1 Nephi 17:22
And we know that the people who were in the land of Jerusalem
were a righteous people;
for they kept the statutes and judgments of the Lord,
and all his commandments, according to the law of Moses;
wherefore, we know that they are a righteous people;
and our father hath judged them,
and hath led us away because we would hearken unto his words;
yea, and our brother is like unto him.
And after this manner of language
did my brethren murmur and complain against us.
were a righteous people;
