1 Nephi 16:14

And it came to pass that we did take our bows and our arrows,

and go forth into the wilderness to slay food for our families;

and after we had slain food for our families

we did return again to our families in the wilderness, to the place of Shazer.

And we did go forth again in the wilderness,

following the same direction,

keeping in the most fertile parts of the wilderness,

which were in the borders near the Red Sea.

slaying food by the way,

with our bows and our arrows and our stones and our slings.

1 Nephi 16:21

Now it came to pass that I, Nephi,

having been afflicted with my brethren because of the loss of my bow,

and their bows having lost their springs,

it began to be exceedingly difficult,

yea, insomuch that we could obtain no food.
