Helaman 11:2, 6,

Helaman 12:2



Helaman 11:2

And it was this secret band of robbers

who did carry on this work of destruction and wickedness.

and this war did last all that year;

and in the seventy and third year it did also last.



Helaman 11:6

and this work of destruction did also continue in the seventy and fifth year.

For the earth was smitten

that it was dry, and did not yield forth grain in the season of grain;

and the whole earth was smitten,

even among the Lamanites as well as among the Nephites,

so that they were smitten

that they did perish by thousands in the more wicked parts of the land.



Helaman 12:2

Yea, and we may see at the very time when he doth prosper his people,

yea, in the increase of their fields, their flocks and their herds,

and in gold, and in silver,

and in all manner of precious things of every kind and art;

sparing their lives, and delivering them out of the hands of their enemies;

softening the hearts of their enemies

that they should not declare wars against them;

yea, and in fine, doing all things for the welfare and happiness of his people;

yea, then is the time that they do harden their hearts,

and do forget the Lord their God,

and do trample under their feet the Holy One —

yea, and this because of their ease, and their exceedingly great prosperity.
