1 Nephi 16:3

And now my brethren, if ye were righteous

and were willing to hearken to the truth, and give heed unto it,

that ye might walk uprightly before God,

then ye would not murmur because of the truth, and say:

Thou speakest hard things against us.



1 Nephi 17:22

And we know that the people who were in the land of Jerusalem

were a righteous people;

for they kept the statutes and judgments of the Lord,

and all his commandments, according to the law of Moses;

wherefore, we know that they are a righteous people;

and our father hath judged them,

and hath led us away because we would hearken unto his words;

yea, and our brother is like unto him.

And after this manner of language

did my brethren murmur and complain against us.
