for they took him, and bound him, and carried him before Ammon,

who was a high priest over that people.

Alma 30:22

And it came to pass that the high priest said unto him:

Why do ye go about perverting the ways of the Lord?

Why do ye teach this people that there shall be no Christ,

to interrupt their rejoicings?

Why do ye speak against all the prophecies of the holy prophets?

Alma 30:23

And Korihor said unto him:

Because I do not teach the foolish traditions of your fathers,

and because I do not teach this people to bind themselves down

under the foolish ordinances and performances

which are laid down by ancient priests,

to usurp power and authority over them,

to keep them in ignorance,

that they may not lift up their heads,

but be brought down according to thy words.

yea, when they saw that he would revile even against God,

they would not make any reply to his words;

and sent him to the land of Zarahemla,

that he might be brought before Alma, and the chief judge

who was governor over all the land.

Alma 30:32

Thou knowest that we do not glut ourselves upon the labors of this people;

to declare the word of God unto my people.

will ye tempt your God?

The scriptures are laid before thee,

yea, and all things denote there is a God;

yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it,

yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form

do witness that there is a Supreme Creator.

thou wouldst again lead away the hearts of this people;

therefore, it shall be unto thee even as the Lord will.

and the one who was the foremost among them said unto him:

Behold, what shall these my brethren do,

for they are despised of all men because of their poverty,

yea, and more especially by our priests;

for they have cast us out of our synagogues

which we have labored abundantly to build with our own hands;

and they have cast us out because of our exceeding poverty;

and we have no place to worship our God; and behold, what shall we do?
