89 Nevertheless, they caused that Nephi should be taken and bound and brought before the multitude, and they began to question him in divers ways, and they might cross him, that they might accuse him to death:
90 Saying unto him, Thou art confederate; who is this man that has done this murder? Now tell us, and acknowledge thy fault, saying, Behold here is money; and also we will grant unto thee thy life, it thou wilt tell us and acknowledge the agreement which thou hast made with him.
91 But Nephi said unto them, O ye fools, ye uncircumcised of heart, ye blind, and ye stiff-necked people, do ye know how long the Lord your God will suffer you that ye shall go on in this your way of sin?
92 O ye ought to begin to howl and mourn, because of the great destruction at this time which doth await you, except ye shall repent.
93 Behold, ye say that I have agreed with a man, that he should murder Seezoram, our chief judge.
94 But behold, I say unto you, that this is because I have testifed 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.
95 And because I have done this, ye say that I have agreed with a man that he should do this thing; yea, because I shewed unto you this sign, ye are angry with me, and seek to destroy my life.
96 And now behold, I will shew unto you another sign, and see if ye will in this thing seek to destroy me.
97 Behold I say unto you, Go to the house of Seantum, who is the brother of Seezoram, and say unto him, 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? And behold, he shall say unto you, Nay.
98 And ye shall say unto him, Have ye murdered your brother? And he shall stand with fear, and wist not what to say.
99 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.
