3 Nephi 28:22 22 And twice were they cast into a den of wild beasts; and behold they did play with the beasts as a child with a suckling lamb, and received no harm.

3 Nephi 28:23 23 And it came to pass that thus they did go forth among all the people of Nephi, and did preach the gospel of Christ unto all people upon the face of the land; and they were converted unto the Lord, and were united unto the church of Christ, and thus the people of that generation were blessed, according to the word of Jesus.

3 Nephi 28:24 24 And now I, Mormon, make an end of speaking concerning these things for a time.

3 Nephi 28:25 25 Behold, I was about to write the names of those who were never to taste of death, but the Lord forbade; therefore I write them not, for they are hid from the world.

3 Nephi 28:26 26 But behold, I have seen them, and they have ministered unto me.

3 Nephi 28:27 27 And behold they will be among the Gentiles, and the Gentiles shall know them not.
