Mosiah 28:20,

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.
Mosiah 29:5
Behold, O ye my people, or my brethren,
for I esteem you as such,
I desire that ye should consider the cause which ye are called to consider —
for ye are desirous to have a king.
Mosiah 29:13
Therefore, if it were possible that you could have just men to be your kings,
who would establish the laws of God,
and judge this people according to his commandments,
yea, if ye could have men for your kings
who would do even as my father Benjamin did for this people —
I say unto you,
if this could always be the case
then it would be expedient
that ye should always have kings to rule over you.
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.
Mosiah 29:32
And now I desire that this inequality should be no more in this land,
especially among this my people;
but I desire that this land be a land of liberty,
and every man may enjoy his rights and privileges alike,
so long as the Lord sees fit that we may live and inherit the land,
yea, even as long as any of our posterity remains upon the face of the land.
Mosiah 29:40
And they did wax strong in love towards Mosiah;
yea, they did esteem him more than any other man;
for they did not look upon him as a tyrant who was seeking for gain,
yea, for that lucre which doth corrupt the soul;
for he had not exacted riches of them,
neither had he delighted in the shedding of blood;
but he had established peace in the land,
and he had granted unto his people
that they should be delivered from all manner of bondage;
therefore they did esteem him,
yea, exceedingly, beyond measure.
