Alma 19:28 28 And thus the contention began to be exceedingly sharp among them. And while they were thus contending, the woman servant who had caused the multitude to be gathered together came, and when she saw the contention which was among the multitude she was exceedingly sorrowful, even unto tears.
Alma 19:29 29 And it came to pass that she went and took the queen by the hand, that perhaps she might raise her from the ground; and as soon as she touched her hand she arose and stood upon her feet, and cried with a loud voice, saying: O blessed Jesus, who has saved me from an awful hell! O blessed God, have mercy on this people!
Alma 19:30 30 And when she had said this, she clasped her hands, being filled with joy, speaking many words which were not understood; and when she had done this, she took the king, Lamoni, by the hand, and behold he arose and stood upon his feet.
Alma 19:31 31 And he, immediately, seeing the contention among his people, went forth and began to rebuke them, and to teach them the words which he had heard from the mouth of Ammon; and as many as heard his words believed, and were converted unto the Lord.
Alma 19:32 32 But there were many among them who
would not hear his words;
therefore they went their way.
Alma 19:33 33 And it came to pass that when Ammon arose he also administered unto them, and also did all the servants of Lamoni; and they did all declare unto the people the selfsame thing—that their hearts had been changed; that they had no more desire to do evil.
Alma 19:34 34 And behold, many did declare unto
the people that they had
seen angels and had conversed with them; and thus
they had told
them things of God, and of his righteousness.
Alma 19:35 35 And it came to pass that there were
many that did believe in
their words; and as many as did believe were baptized;
and they
became a righteous people, and they did establish
a church among
them.
Alma 19:36 36 And thus the work of the Lord did
commence among the
Lamanites; thus the Lord did begin to pour out his
Spirit upon
them; and we see that his arm is extended to all people
who will
repent and believe on his name.
Alma 20
Chapter 20
Alma 20:1 1 And it came to pass that when they had
established a church in
that land, that king Lamoni desired that Ammon should
go with him
to the land of Nephi, that he might show him unto
his father.
Alma 20:2 2 And the voice of the Lord came to Ammon
saying: Thou shalt not
go up to the land of Nephi, for behold, the king will
seek thy
life; but thou shalt go to the land of Middoni; for
behold, thy
brother Aaron, and also Muloki and Ammah are in prison.
Alma 20:3 3 Now it came to pass that when Ammon
had heard this, he said
unto Lamoni: Behold, my brother and brethren
are in prison at
Middoni, and I go that I may deliver them.
