1 Nephi 17:17

And when my brethren saw that I was about to build a ship,

they began to murmur against me, saying:

Our brother is a fool,

for he thinketh that he can build a ship;

yea, and he also thinketh that he can cross these great waters.

1 Nephi 17:18

And thus my brethren did complain against me,

and were desirous that they might not labor,

for they did not believe that I could build a ship;

neither would they believe that I was instructed of the Lord.
