Alma 15:3

Alma 14:6

And it came to pass that

Zeezrom was astonished at the words which had been spoken;

and he also knew concerning the blindness of the minds,

which he had caused among the people by his lying words;

and his soul began to be harrowed up under a consciousness of his own guilt;

yea, he began to be encircled about by the pains of hell.

Alma 14:7

And it came to pass that he began to cry unto the people, saying:

Behold, I am guilty, and these men are spotless before God.

And he began to plead for them from that time forth;

but they reviled him, saying:

Art thou also possessed with the devil?

And they spit upon him,

and cast him out from among them,

and also all those who believed in the words

which had been spoken by Alma and Amulek;

and they cast them out, and sent men to cast stones at them.

Alma 15:3

And also Zeezrom lay sick at Sidom, with a burning fever,

which was caused by the great tribulations of his mind

on account of his wickedness,

for he supposed that Alma and Amulek were no more;

and he supposed that they had been slain because of his iniquity.

And this great sin, and his many other sins, did harrow up his mind

until it did become exceedingly sore,

having no deliverance;

therefore he began to be scorched with a burning heat.
