And now it came to pass that when Nephi had said these words,

behold, there were men who were judges,

who also belonged to the secret band of Gadianton,

and they were angry,

and they cried out against him, saying unto the people:

Why do ye not seize upon this man and bring him forth,

that he may be condemned according to the crime which he has done?

Why seest thou this man, and hearest him

revile against this people and against our law?

yea, and also that these our great cities shall be taken from us,

that we shall have no place in them.

And it came to pass that

thus they did stir up the people to anger against Nephi,

Let this man alone, for he is a good man,

and those things which he saith will surely come to pass except we repent;

Helaman 8:12

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?

But, behold, ye not only deny my words,

but ye also deny all the words which have been spoken by our fathers,

yea, the words which he hath spoken concerning the coming of the Messiah.

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 9:15

we know not who has done it;

and only this much we know,

we ran and came according as ye desired,

and behold he was dead, according to the words of Nephi.

And now behold, we will detect this man,

and he shall confess his fault

and make known unto us the true murderer of this judge.

Saying unto him:

Thou art confederate;

who is this man that hath done this murder?

Now tell us, and acknowledge thy fault;

saying,

Behold here is money;

and also we will grant unto thee thy life

if thou wilt tell us, and acknowledge the agreement

which thou hast made with him.
