1 Nephi 18:18

Because of their grief and much sorrow, and the iniquity of my brethren,

they were brought near even to be carried out of this time to meet their God;

yea, their grey hairs were about to be brought down to lie low in the dust;

yea, even they were near to be cast with sorrow into a watery grave.

yea, even they were near to be cast with sorrow into a watery grave.
