3 Nephi 7:14

3 Nephi 6:13

Some were lifted up in pride,

and others were exceedingly humble;

some did return railing for railing,

while others would receive railing and persecution and all manner of afflictions,

and would not turn and revile again,

but were humble and penitent before God.

3 Nephi 6:15

Now the cause of this iniquity of the people was this —

Satan had great power, unto the stirring up of the people

to do all manner of iniquity,

and to the puffing them up with pride,

tempting them to seek for power, and authority,

and riches, and the vain things of the world.

3 Nephi 6:16

And thus Satan did lead away the hearts of the people to do all manner of iniquity;

therefore they had enjoyed peace but a few years.

3 Nephi 7:14

And it came to pass in the thirty and first year

that they were divided into tribes,

every man according to his family, kindred and friends;

nevertheless they had come to an agreement

that they would not go to war one with another;

but they were not united as to their laws, and their manner of government,

for they were established according to the minds of those

who were their chiefs and their leaders.

But they did establish very strict laws

that one tribe should not trespass against another,

insomuch that in some degree they had peace in the land;

nevertheless, their hearts were turned from the Lord their God,

and they did stone the prophets and did cast them out from among them.
