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 7:8

Yea, if my days could have been in those days,

then would my soul have had joy in the righteousness of my brethren.

Helaman 8:12

And now behold, if God gave unto this man such power,

then why should ye dispute among yourselves,

and say that he hath given unto me no power

whereby I may know concerning the judgments

that shall come upon you except ye repent?

Helaman 8:20

And behold, also Zenock, and also Ezias, and also Isaiah, and Jeremiah,

(Jeremiah being that same prophet who testified of the destruction of Jerusalem)

and now we know that Jerusalem was destroyed

according to the words of Jeremiah.

O then why not the Son of God come, according to his prophecy?

Helaman 9:2

Behold, now we will know of a surety

whether this man be a prophet

and God hath commanded him

to prophesy such marvelous things unto us.

Behold, we do not believe that he hath;

yea, we do not believe that he is a prophet;

nevertheless, if this thing

which he has said concerning the chief judge be true,

that he be dead,

then will we believe that the other words which he has spoken are true.

Helaman 9:16

And now it came to pass that

the judges did expound the matter unto the people,

and did cry out against Nephi, saying:

Behold, we know that this Nephi must have agreed

with some one to slay the judge,

and then he might declare it unto us,

that he might convert us unto his faith,

that he might raise himself to be a great man,

chosen of God, and a prophet.

Helaman 9:33

And then shall he tremble, and shall look pale,

even as if death had come upon him.

Helaman 9:34

And then shall ye say:

Because of this fear and this paleness which has come upon your face,

behold, we know that thou art guilty.

Helaman 9:35

And then shall greater fear come upon him;

and then shall he confess unto you,

and deny no more that he has done this murder.

Helaman 9:36

And then shall he say unto you,

that I, Nephi, know nothing concerning the matter

save it were given unto me by the power of God.

And then shall ye know that I am an honest man,

and that I am sent unto you from God.
