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 17:14

After ye have arrived in the promised land,

1 Nephi 17:20

And thou art like unto our father,

led away by the foolish imaginations of his heart;

yea, he hath led us out of the land of Jerusalem,

and we have wandered in the wilderness for these many years;

and our women have toiled, being big with child;

and they have borne children in the wilderness

and suffered all things, save it were death;

and it would have been better that they had died

before they came out of Jerusalem than to have suffered these afflictions.

would have been led away out of the hands of the Egyptians

if they had not hearkened unto the words of the Lord?

Behold, he loved our fathers,

and he covenanted with them,

yea, even Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob;

and he remembered the covenants which he had made;

wherefore, he did bring them out of the land of Egypt.
