Jacob 7:7, 24, 25

Jacob 7:7

And ye have led away much of this people

that they pervert the right way of God,

and keep not the law of Moses which is the right way;

and convert the law of Moses into the worship of a being

which ye say shall come many hundred years hence.

And now behold, I, Sherem, declare unto you that this is blasphemy;

for no man knoweth of such things;

for he cannot tell of things to come.

And after this manner did Sherem contend against me.

Jacob 7:24

And it came to pass that many means were devised

to reclaim and restore the Lamanites to the knowledge of the truth;

but it all was vain,

for they delighted in wars and bloodshed,

and they had an eternal hatred against us, their brethren.

And they sought by the power of their arms to destroy us continually.

Jacob 7:25

Wherefore, the people of Nephi did fortify against them

with their arms, and with all their might,

trusting in the God and rock of their salvation;

wherefore, they became as yet, conquerors of their enemies.
