who had entered into the covenant,

yea, insomuch that they had become exceedingly wicked;
yea, the more part of them had turned out of the way of righteousness,

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.
