Alma 10:17, 22, 23



Alma 10:17

Now they knew not that Amulek could know of their designs.

but it came to pass as they began to question him,

he perceived their thoughts,

and he said unto them:

O ye wicked and perverse generation,

ye lawyers and hypocrites,

for ye are laying the foundations of the devil;

for ye are laying traps and snares to catch the holy ones of God.



Alma 10:22

Yea, and I say unto you that

if it were not for the prayers of the righteous, who are now in the land,

that ye would even now be visited with utter destruction;

yet it would not be by flood, as were the people in the days of Noah,

but it would be by famine, and by pestilence, and the sword.



Alma 10:23

but it is by the prayers of the righteous that ye are spared;

now therefore, if ye will cast out the righteous from among you

then will not the Lord stay his hand;

but in his fierce anger he will come out against you;

then ye shall be smitten by famine, and by pestilence, and by the sword;

and the time is soon at hand except ye repent.
