Alma 4:9, 15

Alma 4:9

And thus, in this eighth year of the reign of the judges,

there began to be great contentions among the people of the church;

yea, there were envyings, and strife, and malice, and persecutions, and pride,

even to exceed the pride of those who did not belong to the church of God.

Alma 4:15

And now it came to pass that

Alma, having seen the afflictions of the humble followers of God,

and the persecutions which were heaped upon them by the remainder of his people,

and seeing all their inequality,

began to be very sorrowful;

nevertheless the Spirit of the Lord did not fail him.
