1 Nephi 17:35

behold, the Lord esteemeth all flesh in one: He that is righteous, is favored of God. But, behold, this people had rejected every word of God, and they were ripe in iniquity; and the fulness of the wrath of God was upon them; and the Lord did curse the land against them, and bless it unto our fathers; yea, he did curse it against them unto their destruction; and he did bless it unto our fathers, unto their obtaining power over it.

The Lord values all people the same. Those who are righteous are blessed by God. But these people had rejected every word of God. They were full of sin. God’s full anger was upon them. The Lord cursed the land against them and blessed it for our fathers. He cursed it for their destruction. He blessed it for our fathers to have power over it.

“God values all people equally. He favors the righteous. But those people had rejected everything from God. They were completely corrupt. God’s anger burned against them. He cursed their land and blessed it for our ancestors. He cursed it to destroy them and blessed it to give our ancestors power over it.”
