Helaman 7:4, 7,

Helaman 8:3

Helaman 7:4

And seeing the people in a state of such awful wickedness,

and those Gadianton robbers filling the judgment–seats —

having usurped the power and authority of the land;

laying aside the commandments of God,

and not in the least aright before him;

doing no justice unto the children of men;

Helaman 7:7

Oh, that I could have had my days in the days

when my father Nephi first came out of the land of Jerusalem,

that I could have joyed with him in the promised land;

then were his people easy to be entreated,

firm to keep the commandments of God,

and slow to be led to do iniquity;

and they were quick to hearken unto the words of the Lord—

Helaman 8:3

For behold, Nephi had spoken unto them

concerning the corruptness of their law;

yea, many things did Nephi speak which cannot be written;

and nothing did he speak which was contrary to the commandments of God.
