Helaman 7:5

Condemning the righteous because of their righteousness;

letting the guilty and the wicked go unpunished because of their money;

and moreover to be held in office at the head of government,

to rule and do according to their wills,

that they might get gain and glory of the world,

and, moreover, that they might the more easily commit adultery,

and steal, and kill, and do according to their own wills—

Helaman 7:11

And it came to pass that there were certain men passing by

and saw Nephi as he was pouring out his soul unto God upon the tower;

and they ran and told the people what they had seen,

and the people came together in multitudes

that they might know the cause of so great mourning

for the wickedness of the people.

Helaman 9:19

Nevertheless, they caused that Nephi should be taken and bound

and brought before the multitude,

and they began to question him in divers ways that they might cross him,

that they might accuse him to death—

Helaman 10:15

And it came to pass that when Nephi had declared unto them the word,

behold, they did still harden their hearts and would not hearken unto his words;

therefore they did revile against him,

and did seek to lay their hands upon him

that they might cast him into prison.
