1 Nephi 16:25

And it came to pass that the voice of the Lord came unto my father;

and he was truly chastened because of his murmuring against the Lord,

insomuch that he was brought down into the depths of sorrow.

1 Nephi 18:17

Now my father, Lehi, had said many things unto them,

and also unto the sons of Ishmael;

but, behold, they did breathe out much threatenings

against anyone that should speak for me;

and my parents being stricken in years,

and having suffered much grief because of their children,

they were brought down, yea, even upon their sick-beds.

1 Nephi 18:18

Because of their grief and much sorrow, and the iniquity of my brethren,

they were brought near even to be carried out of this time to meet their God;

yea, their grey hairs were about to be brought down to lie low in the dust;

yea, even they were near to be cast with sorrow into a watery grave.
