Alma 30:1

Behold, now it came to pass that

after the people of Ammon were established in the land of Jershon,

yea, and also after the Lamanites were driven out of the land,

and their dead were buried by the people of the land —

Alma 30:28

Yea, they durst not make use of that which is their own

lest they should offend their priests,

who do yoke them according to their desires,

and have brought them to believe, by their traditions and their dreams

and their whims and their visions and their pretended mysteries,

that they should, if they did not do according to their words,

offend some unknown being, who they say is God —

a being who never has been seen or known,

who never was nor ever will be.

Alma 31:28

Behold, O my God, their costly apparel,

and their ringlets, and their bracelets, and their ornaments of gold,

and all their precious things which they are ornamented with;

and behold, their hearts are set upon them,

and yet they cry unto thee and say —

We thank thee, O God, for we are a chosen people unto thee,

while others shall perish.

Now their rulers and their priests and their teachers

did not let the people know concerning their desires;

therefore they found out privily the minds of all the people.

Alma 35:14

And Alma, and Ammon, and their brethren, and also the two sons of Alma

returned to the land of Zarahemla,

after having been instruments in the hands of God

of bringing many of the Zoramites to repentance;

and as many as were brought to repentance were driven out of their land;

but they have lands for their inheritance in the land of Jershon,

and they have taken up arms to defend themselves,

and their wives, and children, and their lands.
