Helaman 3:34

even to the persecution of many of their brethren.

Now this was a great evil,

which did cause the more humble part of the people

to suffer great persecutions, and to wade through much affliction.



Helaman 6:8

And it came to pass that the Lamanites did also go whithersoever they would,

and thus they did have free intercourse one with another,

to buy and to sell, and to get gain, according to their desire.



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 6:28

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 6:34

And thus we see that the Nephites did begin to dwindle in unbelief,

and grow in wickedness and abominations,

while the Lamanites began to grow exceedingly in the knowledge of their God;

yea, they did begin to keep his statutes and commandments,

and to walk in truth and uprightness before him.



Helaman 6:38

And it came to pass on the other hand,

that the Nephites did build them up and support them,

beginning at the more wicked part of them,

until they had overspread all the land of the Nephites,

and had seduced the more part of the righteous

until they had come down to believe in their works

and partake of their spoils,

and to join with them in their secret murders and combinations.
