2 Nephi 5:3

Our younger brother thinks to rule over us;

and we have had much trial because of him;

wherefore, now let us slay him,

that we may not be afflicted more because of his words.

For behold, we will not have him to be our ruler;

for it belongs unto us, who are the elder brethren, to rule over this people.

which he spake unto me,

saying that: Inasmuch as they will not hearken unto thy words

they shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord.

They shall be a scourge unto thy seed, to stir them up in remembrance of me;

and inasmuch as they will not remember me, and hearken unto my words,

they shall scourge them even unto destruction.
