4 And they began to establish the church more fully; Yea, and many were baptized in the waters of Sidon and were joined to the church of God,

5 Yea, they were baptized by the hand of Alma who had been consecrated the high priest over the people of the church by the hand of his father Alma.

6 And it came to pass in the seventh year of the reign of the judges there were about three thousand five hundred souls that united themselves to the church of God and were baptized;

7 And thus ended the seventh year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi; And there was continual peace in all that time.

8 And it came to pass in the eighth year of the reign of the judges that the people of the church began to wax proud, Because of their exceeding riches, and their fine silks and their fine-twined linen,

9 And because of their many flocks and herds, and their gold and their silver, and all manner of precious things which they had obtained by their industry;

10 And in all these things were they lifted up in the pride of their eyes, for they began to wear very costly apparel.

11 Now this was the cause of much affliction to Alma, yea, and to many of the people which Alma had consecrated to be teachers and priests and elders over the church;

12 Yea, many of them were sorely grieved for the wickedness which they saw had begun to be among their people,

13 For they saw and beheld with great sorrow that the people of the church began to be lifted up in the pride of their eyes and to set their hearts upon riches and upon the vain things of the world,

14 That they began to be scornful, one toward another, And they began to persecute those that did not believe, according to their own will and pleasure.
