Alma 7:1

Behold my beloved brethren,

seeing that I have been permitted to come unto you,

therefore I attempt to address you in my language;

yea, by my own mouth,

seeing that it is the first time

that I have spoken unto you by the words of my mouth,

I having been wholly confined to the judgment-seat,

having had much business that I could not come unto you.

Alma 7:2

And even I could not have come now at this time

were it not that the judgment-seat hath been given to another,

to reign in my stead;

and the Lord in much mercy hath granted that I should come unto you.

Alma 7:5

And I trust, according to the Spirit of God which is in me,

that I shall also have joy over you;

nevertheless I do not desire

that my joy over you should come

by the cause of so much afflictions and sorrow

which I have had for the brethren at Zarahemla,

for behold, my joy cometh over them

after wading through much affliction and sorrow.

Alma 7:17

And now my beloved brethren, do you believe these things?

Behold, I say unto you,

yea, I know that ye believe them;

and the way that I know that ye believe them

is by the manifestation of the Spirit which is in me.

And now because your faith is strong concerning that,

yea, concerning the things which I have spoken,

great is my joy.

Alma 7:18

For as I said unto you from the beginning,

that I had much desire

that ye were not in the state of dilemma like your brethren,

even so I have found that my desires have been gratified.

Alma 7:22

And now my beloved brethren, I have said these things unto you

that I might awaken you to a sense of your duty to God,

that ye may walk blameless before him,

that ye may walk after the holy order of God,

after which ye have been received.

Alma 7:26

And now my beloved brethren, I have spoken these words unto you

according to the Spirit which testifieth in me;

and my soul doth exceedingly rejoice,

because of the exceeding diligence and heed

which ye have given unto my word.
