Mosiah 29:26

~92 BC

1830 Edition

Now it is not common that the voice of the people desireth any thing contrary to that which is right; but it is common for the lesser part of the people to desire that which is not right; therefore this shall ye observe, and make it your law to do your business by the voice of the people.

Now it is not common that the voice of the people desireth any thing contrary to that which is right; but it is common for the lesser part of the people to desire that which is not right; therefore this shall ye observe, and make it your law to do your business by the voice of the people.

Simple English

Most of the time, the people want what is right. But sometimes a smaller part of the people want what is wrong. So make this your law: do your business by what most people want.

Paraphrase

Usually, most people want what's right. It's typically just a small group that wants evil. So make this your law: do your business by the voice of the majority.
