who were in the land of Ammonihah, saying:

Alma 10:5

Nevertheless, after all this, I never have known much of the ways of the Lord,

and his mysteries and marvelous power.

I said I never had known much of these things;

but behold, I mistake,

for I have seen much of his mysteries and his marvelous power;

yea, even in the preservation of the lives of this people.

Alma 10:6

Nevertheless, I did harden my heart,

for I was called many times and I would not hear;

therefore I knew concerning these things,

yet I would not know;

therefore I went on rebelling against God, in the wickedness of my heart,

even until the fourth day of this seventh month,

which is in the tenth year of the reign of the judges.

Alma 10:12

And now, when Amulek had spoken these words

the people began to be astonished,

seeing there was more than one witness

who testified of the things whereof they were accused,

and also of the things which were to come,

according to the spirit of prophecy which was in them.

Nevertheless, there were some among them who thought to question them,

that by their cunning devices they might catch them in their words,

that they might find witness against them,

that they might deliver them to their judges

that they might be judged according to the law,

and that they might be slain or cast into prison,

according to the crime which they could make appear or witness against them.

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.

but I have spoken in favor of your law,

to your condemnation.

who were brought before them to be judged.

Now these are the names of the different pieces

of their gold, and of their silver, according to their value.

And the names are given by the Nephites,

for they did not reckon after the manner of the Jews who were at Jerusalem;

neither did they measure after the manner of the Jews;

but they altered their reckoning and their measure,

according to the minds and the circumstances of the people,

in every generation, until the reign of the judges,

they having been established by king Mosiah.

Alma 11:21

And this Zeezrom began to question Amulek, saying:

Will ye answer me a few questions which I shall ask you?

Now Zeezrom was a man who was expert in the devices of the devil,

that he might destroy that which was good;

therefore, he said unto Amulek:

Will ye answer the questions which I shall put unto you?

Alma 11:22

And Amulek said unto him:

Yea, if it be according to the Spirit of the Lord, which is in me;

for I shall say nothing which is contrary to the Spirit of the Lord.

And Zeezrom said unto him:

Behold, here are six onties of silver,

and all these will I give thee

if thou wilt deny the existence of a Supreme Being.

And now thou hast lied before God unto me.

Thou saidst unto me —

Behold these six onties, which are of great worth,

I will give unto thee —

when thou hadst it in thy heart to retain them from me;

and it was only thy desire that I should deny the true and living God,

that thou mightest have cause to destroy me.

And now behold, for this great evil thou shalt have thy reward.

that he cannot save them in their sins;

for I cannot deny his word,

Therefore, ye cannot be saved in your sins.

And Amulek said unto him:

Yea, he is the very Eternal Father of heaven and of earth,

he is the beginning and the end,

the first and the last;

Alma 11:43

The spirit and the body shall be reunited again in its perfect form;

both limb and joint shall be restored to its proper frame,

even as we now are at this time;

and we shall be brought to stand before God,

knowing even as we know now,

and have a bright recollection of all our guilt.

Alma 11:44

Now, this restoration shall come to all,

both old and young, both bond and free, both male and female,

both the wicked and the righteous;

and even there shall not so much as a hair of their heads be lost;

but every thing shall be restored to its perfect frame,

as it is now, or in the body,

and shall be brought and be arraigned

before the bar of Christ the Son, and God the Father, and the Holy Spirit,

which is one Eternal God,

to be judged according to their works,

whether they be good or whether they be evil.
