24And because I have done this, ye say that I have agreed with a man that he should do this thing; yea, because I showed unto you this sign ye are angry with me, and seek to destroy my life.
25And now behold, I will show unto you another sign, and see if ye will in this thing seek to destroy me.
26Behold I say unto you: Go to the house of Seantum, who is the brother of Seezoram, and say unto him—
27Has 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?
28And behold, he shall say unto you, Nay.
29And ye shall say unto him: Have ye murdered your brother?
30And he shall stand with fear, and wist not what to say. 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.
31But behold, ye shall examine him, and ye shall find blood upon the skirts of his cloak.
32And when ye have seen this, ye shall say: From whence cometh this blood? Do we not know that it is the blood of your brother?
33And then shall he tremble, and shall look pale, even as if death had come upon him.
34And then shall ye say: Because of this fear and this paleness which has come upon your face, behold, we know that thou art guilty.
35And then shall greater fear come upon him; and then shall he confess unto you, and deny no more that he has done this murder.
36And then shall he say unto you, that I, Nephi, know nothing concerning the matter save it were given unto me by the power of God. And then shall ye know that I am an honest man, and that I am sent unto you from God.
41And there were others who said: Behold, he is a god, for except he was a god he could not know of all things. For behold, he has told us the thoughts of our hearts, and also has told us things; and even he has brought unto our knowledge the true murderer of our chief judge.
