And it came to pass that Laman and Lemuel and the sons of Ishmael

did begin to murmur exceedingly,

because of their sufferings and afflictions in the wilderness;

and also my father began to murmur against the Lord his God;

yea, and they were all exceedingly sorrowful,

even that they did murmur against the Lord.

1 Nephi 16:35

And it came to pass that the daughters of Ishmael did mourn exceedingly,

because of the loss of their father,

and because of their afflictions in the wilderness;

and they did murmur against my father,

because he had brought them out of the land of Jerusalem, saying:

Our father is dead;

yea, and we have wandered much in the wilderness,

and we have suffered much affliction, hunger, thirst, and fatigue;

and after all these sufferings we must perish in the wilderness with hunger.
