1 Nephi 18:19, 20



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.



1 Nephi 18:20

And there was nothing save it were the power of God,

which threatened them with destruction,

could soften their hearts;

wherefore, when they saw that

they were about to be swallowed up in the depths of the sea

they repented of the thing which they had done,

insomuch that they loosed me.
