Nevertheless, they durst not lie, if it were known, for fear of the law,

for liars were punished;

and now the law could have no power on any man for his belief.

And they durst not steal, for fear of the law,

for such were punished;

neither durst they rob, nor murder,

for he that murdered was punished unto death.

And it came to pass that by thus exercising the law upon them,

every man suffering according to that which he had done,

they became more still,

and durst not commit any wickedness if it were known;

therefore, there was much peace among the people of Nephi

until the fifth year of the reign of the judges.
