eldest the name of Nephi, and unto the youngest, the name of
Lehi. And they began to grow up unto the Lord.

Helaman 3:22
22 And it came to pass that the wars and contentions began to
cease, in a small degree, among the people of the Nephites, in
the latter end of the forty and eighth year of the reign of the

Helaman 3:23
23 And it came to pass in the forty and ninth year of the reign
