28 And it came to pass that we did gather in our people as fast as it were possible, that we might get them together in one body.

29 But behold, the land was filled with robbers and with Lamanites; And notwithstanding the great destruction which hung over my people, they did not repent of their evil doings;

30 Therefore, there was blood and carnage spread throughout all the face of the land - Both on the part of the Nephites, and also on the part of the Lamanites; And it was one complete revolution throughout all the face of the land.

33 And behold, all this was done and three hundred and thirty years had passed away.

34 And it came to pass that the Nephites began to repent of their iniquity and began to cry, even as had been prophesied by Samuel the prophet; For behold, no man could keep that which was his own, for the thieves and the robbers and the murderers and the magic art and the witchcraft which was in the land;

35 Thus there began to be a mourning and a lamentation in all the land because of these things, and more especially among the people of Nephi.

37 But behold, this my joy was vain, for their sorrowing was not unto repentance because of the goodness of God, But it was rather the sorrowing of the damned because the Lord would not always suffer them to take happiness in sin.

38 And they did not come unto Jesus with broken hearts and contrite spirits, but they did curse God and wish to die;
