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 7:11

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

that they might know the cause of so great mourning

for the wickedness of the people.

yea, and that ye might get gold and silver.

for the which ye do murder, and plunder, and steal,

and bear false witness against your neighbor,

and do all manner of iniquity.

who also belonged to the secret band of Gadianton,

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?

whose author is Gadianton and the evil one

who seeketh to destroy the souls of men.

unto the place of the judgment–seat —

and behold, to their astonishment they saw those five men

who had fallen to the earth.

who had gathered together at the garden of Nephi;

therefore they said among themselves:

These men are they who have murdered the judge,

and God has smitten them that they could not flee from us.
