1 Nephi 17:2, 20, 22, 44, 45

1 Nephi 17:2

And so great were the blessings of the Lord upon us,

that while we did live upon raw meat in the wilderness,

our women did give plenty of suck for their children, and were strong,

yea, even like unto the men;

and they began to bear their journeyings without murmurings.

1 Nephi 17:20

And thou art like unto our father,

led away by the foolish imaginations of his heart;

yea, he hath led us out of the land of Jerusalem,

and we have wandered in the wilderness for these many years;

and our women have toiled, being big with child;

and they have borne children in the wilderness

and suffered all things, save it were death;

and it would have been better that they had died

before they came out of Jerusalem than to have suffered these afflictions.

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.

1 Nephi 17:44

Wherefore, the Lord commanded my father

that he should depart into the wilderness;

and the Jews also sought to take away his life;

yea, and ye also have sought to take away his life;

wherefore, ye are murderers in your hearts

and ye are like unto them.

1 Nephi 17:45

Ye are swift to do iniquity

but slow to remember the Lord your God.

Ye have seen an angel, and he spake unto you;

yea, ye have heard his voice from time to time;

and he hath spoken unto you in a still small voice,

but ye were past feeling, that ye could not feel his words;

wherefore, he has spoken unto you like unto the voice of thunder,

which did cause the earth to shake as if it were to divide asunder.
