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.

1 Nephi 18:19

And Jacob and Joseph also, being young,

having need of much nourishment,

were grieved because of the afflictions of their mother;

and also my wife with her tears and prayers, and also my children,

did not soften the hearts of my brethren

that they would loose me.
