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 18:24

And it came to pass that we did begin to till the earth,

and we began to plant seeds;

yea, we did put all our seeds into the earth,

which we had brought from the land of Jerusalem.

And it came to pass that they did grow exceedingly;

wherefore, we were blessed in abundance.
