The Death of Ishmael
1 Nephi 16:33 - 1 Nephi 16:36
Duration: 0:57
1 Nephi 16:33
And it came to pass that we did again take our journey,
traveling nearly the same course as in the beginning;
and after we had traveled for the space of many days
we did pitch our tents again,
that we might tarry for the space of a time.
1 Nephi 16:34
And it came to pass that Ishmael died,
and was buried in the place which was called Nahom.
1 Nephi 16:35
And it came to pass that the daughters of Ishmael did mourn exceedingly,
because of the loss of their father,
and because of their afflictions in the wilderness;
and they did murmur against my father,
because he had brought them out of the land of Jerusalem, saying:
Our father is dead;
yea, and we have wandered much in the wilderness,
and we have suffered much affliction, hunger, thirst, and fatigue;
and after all these sufferings we must perish in the wilderness with hunger.
1 Nephi 16:36
And thus they did murmur against my father, and also against me;
and they were desirous to return again to Jerusalem.
