23 And testifying unto them concerning the redemption which the Lord would make for His people, or in other words, the resurrection of Christ; And they did testify boldly of His death and sufferings.

24 Now there were many of the people which were exceeding angry because of those which testified of these things;

25 And those which were angry were chiefly the chief judges and they which had been high priests and lawyers;

26 Yea, all they which were lawyers were angry with those which testified of these things.

29 Now behold, this was contrary to the laws of the land - that any man should be put to death except they had power from the governor of the land;

30 Therefore, a complaint came up unto the Land of Zarahemla, to the governor of the land, against these judges which had condemned the prophets of the Lord unto death not according to the law.

31 Now it came to pass that they were taken and brought up before the judge to be judged of their crime which they had done, according to the law which had been given by the people.

32 Now it came to pass that those judges had many friends and kindreds; And the remainder - yea, even almost all the lawyers and the high priests - did gather themselves together and unite with the kindreds of those judges which were to be tried according to the law;

33 And they did enter into a covenant one with another - Yea, even into that covenant which was given by them of old, which covenant was given and administered by the devil to combine against all righteousness -
