Book of Mormon Mosiah 27:10
"he did go about secretly with the sons of Mosiah seeking to destroy the church"
Book of Mormon Mosiah 27:35
"zealously striving to repair all the injuries which they had done to the church"

Self-discovered, both ends in-span (ch. 27). Chapter-internal inversion narrated in matching terms: destroy (27:10) vs repair (27:35); 'stealing away the hearts of the people' (27:9) vs 'bringing many to the knowledge of the truth' (27:36); secrecy (27:10) vs 'publishing all the things which they had seen' (27:35). The structural-design claim is interpretive.
