Alma 14:2

But the more part of them were desirous

that they might destroy Alma and Amulek;

for they were angry with Alma,

because of the plainness of his words unto Zeezrom;

and they also said that Amulek had lied unto them,

and had reviled against their law and also against their lawyers and judges.

Alma 14:5

And the people went forth and witnessed against them —

testifying that they had reviled against the law,

and their lawyers and judges of the land,

and also of all the people that were in the land;

and also testified that there was but one God,

and that he should send his Son among the people,

but he should not save them;

and many such things did the people testify against Alma and Amulek.

Now this was done before the chief judge of the land.

Alma 14:18

And when they had been cast into prison three days,

there came many lawyers, and judges, and priests, and teachers,

who were of the profession of Nehor;

and they came in unto the prison to see them,

and they questioned them about many words;

but they answered them nothing.
