65 Therefore they did stir up the people to riotings, and all manner of disturbances and wickedness, that they might have more employ;

66 That they might get money according to the suits which were brought before them; therefore they did stir up the people against Alma and Amulek.

67 And this Zeezrom began to question Amulek, saying: Will ye answer me a few questions which I shall ask you?

68 Now Zeezrom was a man who was expert in the devices of the devil, that he might destroy that which was good; therefore he said unto Amulek, Will ye answer the questions which I shall put unto you?

69 And Amulek said unto him, Yea, I will if it be according to the Spirit of the Lord which is in me; for I shall say nothing which is contrary to the Spirit of the Lord.

70 And Zeezrom said unto him, Behold here are six onties of silver, and all these will I give thee if thou wilt deny the existence of a supreme being.

71 Now Amulek said, O thou child of hell, why tempt ye me?

72 Knowest thou that the righteous yieldeth to no such temptations?

73 Believest thou that there is no God?

74 I say unto you, Nay; thou knowest that there is a God, but thou lovest that lucre more than him.

75 And now thou hast lied before God unto me.
