7  And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

  18  And because he had fallen from heaven, and had become miserable forever, he ^asought also the misery of all mankind. Wherefore, he said unto Eve, yea, even that old serpent, who is the devil, who is the father of all lies, wherefore he said: Partake of the forbidden fruit, and ye shall not die, but ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.

  27  And thus he goeth up and down, to and fro in the earth, seeking to ^bdestroy the souls of men.

  29  Wherefore, he maketh ^awar with the saints of God, and encompasseth them round about.

  9  Now Satan had gotten great ^ahold upon the hearts of the people of the city of Ammonihah; therefore they would not hearken unto the words of Alma.

  20  Verily, verily, I say unto you, that Satan has great hold upon their hearts; he stirreth them up to ^biniquity against that which is good;

  28  For Satan ^bputteth it into their hearts to anger against you, and to the shedding of blood.
