2 Nephi 4:39 And because of their cursing which was upon them, they did become an
idle people, full of mischief and subtlety, And did seek in the wilderness for beasts of prey;
Mormon 1:81 And it came to pass that I utterly refused to go up against mine enemies; And I did even as the Lord had commanded me; And I did stand as an
idle witness to manifest unto the world the things which I saw and heard, according to the manifestations of the Spirit which had testified of things to come.
