Alma 18:36 36 Now when Ammon had said these words, he began at the creation of the world, and also the creation of Adam, and told him all the things concerning the fall of man, and rehearsed and laid before him the records and the holy scriptures of the people, which had been spoken by the prophets, even down to the time that their father, Lehi, left Jerusalem.
Alma 18:37 37 And he also rehearsed unto them (for
it was unto the king and
to his servants) all the journeyings of their fathers
in the
wilderness, and all their sufferings with hunger and
thirst, and
their travail, and so forth.
Alma 18:38 38 And he also rehearsed unto them concerning
the rebellions of
Laman and Lemuel, and the sons of Ishmael, yea, all
their
rebellions did he relate unto them; and he expounded
unto them
all the records and scriptures from the time that
Lehi left
Jerusalem down to the present time.
Alma 18:39 39 But this is not all; for he expounded
unto them the plan of
redemption, which was prepared from the foundation
of the world;
and he also made known unto them concerning the coming
of Christ,
and all the works of the Lord did he make known unto
them.
Alma 18:40 40 And it came to pass that after he
had said all these things,
and expounded them to the king, that the king believed
all his
words.
Alma 18:41 41 And he began to cry unto the Lord,
saying: O Lord, have
mercy; according to thy abundant mercy which thou
hast had upon
the people of Nephi, have upon me, and my people.
Alma 18:42 42 And now, when he had said this, he
fell unto the earth, as if
he were dead.
Alma 18:43 43 And it came to pass that his servants took him and carried him in unto his wife, and laid him upon a bed; and he lay as if he were dead for the space of two days and two nights; and his wife, and his sons, and his daughters mourned over him, after the manner of the Lamanites, greatly lamenting his loss.
Alma 19
Chapter 19
Alma 19:1 1 And it came to pass that after two days
and two nights they
were about to take his body and lay it in a sepulchre,
which they
had made for the purpose of burying their dead.
Alma 19:2 2 Now the queen having heard of the fame
of Ammon, therefore she
sent and desired that he should come in unto her.
Alma 19:3 3 And it came to pass that Ammon did as
he was commanded, and
went in unto the queen, and desired to know what she
would that
he should do.
Alma 19:4 4 And she said unto him: The servants
of my husband have made it
known unto me that thou art a prophet of a holy God,
and that
thou hast power to do many mighty works in his name;
Alma 19:5 5 Therefore, if this is the case, I would that ye should go in and see my husband, for he has been laid upon his bed for the space of two days and two nights; and some say that he is not dead, but others say that he is dead and that he stinketh, and that he ought to be placed in the sepulchre; but as for myself, to me he doth not stink.
