and conferred them upon Alma, who was the son of Alma;

yea, all the records, and also the interpreters,

and conferred them upon him,

and commanded him that he should keep and preserve them,

and also keep a record of the people,

handing them down from one generation to another,

even as they had been handed down from the time that Lehi left Jerusalem.

yea, they did esteem him more than any other man;

for they did not look upon him as a tyrant who was seeking for gain,

yea, for that lucre which doth corrupt the soul;

for he had not exacted riches of them,

neither had he delighted in the shedding of blood;

and he had granted unto his people

that they should be delivered from all manner of bondage;

therefore they did esteem him,

yea, exceedingly, beyond measure.
