Alma 51:7, 8

Alma 51:7

And it came to pass that this matter of their contention

was settled by the voice of the people.

And it came to pass that the voice of the people came in favor of the freemen,

and Pahoran retained the judgment-seat,

which caused much rejoicing among the brethren of Pahoran

and also many of the people of liberty,

who also put the king-men to silence,

that they durst not oppose

but were obliged to maintain the cause of freedom.

Alma 51:8

Now those who were in favor of kings were those of high birth,

and they sought to be kings;

and they were supported by those

who sought power and authority over the people.
