Yea, they began to remember the prophecies of Alma, and also the words of Mosiah;

and they saw that they had been a stiffnecked people,

and that they had set at naught the commandments of God;

Helaman 4:22

And that they had altered and trampled under their feet the laws of Mosiah,

or that which the Lord commanded him to give unto the people;

and they saw that their laws had become corrupted,

and that they had become a wicked people,

insomuch that they were wicked even like unto the Lamanites.

Helaman 4:24

And they saw that they had become weak, like unto their brethren, the Lamanites,

yea, it had withdrawn from them

because the Spirit of the Lord doth not dwell in unholy temples—

Helaman 6:17

For behold, the Lord had blessed them so long with the riches of the world

that they had not been stirred up to anger, to wars, nor to bloodshed;

therefore they began to set their hearts upon their riches;

yea, they began to seek to get gain

that they might be lifted up one above another;

therefore they began to commit secret murders, and to rob and to plunder,

that they might get gain.

Helaman 6:31

And now behold, he had got great hold upon the hearts of the Nephites;

yea, insomuch that they had become exceedingly wicked;

yea, the more part of them had turned out of the way of righteousness,

and did trample under their feet the commandments of God,

and did turn unto their own ways,

and did build up unto themselves idols of their gold and their silver.
