Mosiah 28:20

And now, as I said unto you, that

after king Mosiah had done these things,

he took the plates of brass, and all the things which he had kept,

and conferred them upon Alma, who was the son of Alma;

yea, all the records, and also the interpreters,

and conferred them upon him,

and commanded him that he should keep and preserve them,

and also keep a record of the people,

handing them down from one generation to another,

even as they had been handed down from the time that Lehi left Jerusalem.

Now it is not common that the voice of the people desireth anything

contrary to that which is right;

but it is common for the lesser part of the people

to desire that which is not right;

therefore this shall ye observe and make it your law —

to do your business by the voice of the people.

Mosiah 29:27

And if the time comes that the voice of the people doth choose iniquity,

then is the time that the judgments of God will come upon you;

yea, then is the time he will visit you with great destruction

even as he has hitherto visited this land.

If your higher judges do not judge righteous judgments,

ye shall cause that a small number of your lower judges

should be gathered together,

and they shall judge your higher judges,

according to the voice of the people.

And many more things did king Mosiah write unto them,

unfolding unto them all the trials and troubles of a righteous king,

yea, all the travails of soul for their people,

and also all the murmurings of the people to their king;

and he explained it all unto them.
