1 Nephi 16:32

And it came to pass that I did return to our tents,

bearing the beasts which I had slain;

and now when they beheld that I had obtained food,

how great was their joy!

And it came to pass that they did humble themselves before the Lord,

and did give thanks unto him.



1 Nephi 17:19

And now it came to pass that I, Nephi, was exceedingly sorrowful

because of the hardness of their hearts;

and now when they saw that I began to be sorrowful

they were glad in their hearts,

insomuch that they did rejoice over me, saying:

We knew that ye could not construct a ship,

for we knew that ye were lacking in judgment;

wherefore, thou canst not accomplish so great a work.



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.
