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

Yea, and the Lord said also that:

After ye have arrived in the promised land,

ye shall know that I, the Lord, am God;

and that I, the Lord, did deliver you from destruction;

yea, that I did bring you out of the land of Jerusalem.

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.

1 Nephi 17:40

And he loveth those who will have him to be their God.

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.
