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 51:9

But behold, this was a critical time

for such contentions to be among the people of Nephi;

for behold, Amalickiah had again stirred up

the hearts of the people of the Lamanites against the people of the Nephites,

and he was gathering together soldiers from all parts of his land,

and arming them, and preparing for war with all diligence;

for he had sworn to drink the blood of Moroni.
