Helaman 3:33

And in the fifty and first year of the reign of the judges

there was peace also,

save it were the pride which began to enter into the church —

not into the church of God,

but into the hearts of the people

who professed to belong to the church of God —

Helaman 3:36

And it came to pass that the fifty and second year ended in peace also,

save it were the exceedingly great pride

which had gotten into the hearts of the people;

and it was because of their exceedingly great riches and their prosperity in the land;

and it did grow upon them from day to day.

Helaman 6:21

But behold, Satan did stir up the hearts of the more part of the Nephites,

insomuch that they did unite with those bands of robbers,

and did enter into their covenants and their oaths,

that they would protect and preserve one another

in whatsoever difficult circumstances they should be placed,

that they should not suffer for their murders,

and their plunderings, and their stealings.

Helaman 6:28

And also it is that same being who put it into the hearts of the people

to build a tower sufficiently high that they might get to heaven.

And it was that same being

who led on the people who came from that tower into this land;

who spread the works of darkness and abominations

over all the face of the land,

until he dragged the people down

to an entire destruction, and to an everlasting hell.

Helaman 6:30

And behold, it is he who is the author of all sin.

And behold, he doth carry on his works of darkness and secret murder,

and doth hand down their plots, and their oaths,

and their covenants, and their plans of awful wickedness,

from generation to generation

according as he can get hold upon the hearts of the children of men.

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.
