Ether 10:6

And he did erect him an exceeding beautiful throne, and he did build many prisons, and whoso would not be subject unto taxes, he did cast into prison; and whoso were not able to pay taxes, he did cast into prison; and he did cause that they should labor continually for their support; and whoso refused to labor, he did cause to be put to death;

He built a beautiful throne for himself. He built many prisons. If people would not pay taxes, he put them in prison. If people could not pay taxes, he put them in prison. He made them work all the time to support themselves. If anyone refused to work, he had them killed.

He built himself a magnificent throne and many prisons. Anyone who wouldn’t pay taxes got thrown in prison. Anyone who couldn’t pay taxes got thrown in prison. He forced them to work constantly just to survive. Anyone who refused to work was executed.
