elaman 9:20
20 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.
Helaman 9:21
21 But Nephi said unto them: O ye fools, ye uncircumcised of
heart, ye blind, and ye stiffnecked people, do ye know how long
the Lord your God will suffer you that ye shall go on in this
your way of sin?
Helaman 9:22
22 O ye ought to begin to howl and mourn, because of the great
destruction which at this time doth await you, except ye shall
repent.
Helaman 9:23
23 Behold ye say that I have agreed with a man that he should
murder Seezoram, our chief judge. But behold, I say unto you,
that this is because I have testified unto you that ye might know
concerning this thing; yea, even for a witness unto you, that I
did know of the wickedness and abominations which are among you.
Helaman 9:24
24 And because I have done this, ye say that I have agreed with
a man that he should do this thing; yea, because I showed unto
you this sign ye are angry with me, and seek to destroy my life.
Helaman 9:25
25 And now behold, I will show unto you another sign, and see if
ye will in this thing seek to destroy me.
Helaman 9:26
26 Behold I say unto you: Go to the house of Seantum, who is the
brother of Seezoram, and say unto him--
Helaman 9:27
27 Has Nephi, the pretended prophet, who doth prophesy so much
evil concerning this people, agreed with thee, in the which ye
have murdered Seezoram, who is your brother?
Helaman 9:28
28 And behold, he shall say unto you, Nay.
Helaman 9:29
29 And ye shall say unto him: Have ye murdered your brother?
Helaman 9:30
30 And he shall stand with fear, and wist not what to say. And
behold, he shall deny unto you; and he shall make as if he were
astonished; nevertheless, he shall declare unto you that he is
innocent.
Helaman 9:31
31 But behold, ye shall examine him, and ye shall find blood
upon the skirts of his cloak.
Helaman 9:32
32 And when ye have seen this, ye shall say: From whence cometh
this blood? Do we not know that it is the blood of your brother?
Helaman 9:33
33 And then shall he tremble, and shall look pale, even as if
death had come upon him.
Helaman 9:34
34 And then shall ye say: Because of this fear and this paleness
which has come upon
