Alma 13:18

But Melchizedek having exercised mighty faith,

and received the office of the high priesthood

according to the holy order of God,

did preach repentance unto his people.

And behold, they did repent;

and Melchizedek did establish peace in the land in his days;

therefore he was called the prince of peace,

for he was the king of Salem;

and he did reign under his father.

Yea, and the voice of the Lord, by the mouth of angels,

doth declare it unto all nations;

yea, doth declare it, that they may have glad tidings of great joy;

yea, and he doth sound these glad tidings among all his people,

yea, even to them that are scattered abroad upon the face of the earth;

wherefore they have come unto us.

Zeezrom was astonished at the words which had been spoken;

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

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

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.

And when Amulek saw the pains of the women and children

who were consuming in the fire,

he also was pained;

How can we witness this awful scene?

Therefore let us stretch forth our hands,

and exercise the power of God which is in us,

and save them from the flames.

Alma 14:11

But Alma said unto him:

The Spirit constraineth me that I must not stretch forth mine hand;

for behold the Lord receiveth them up unto himself, in glory;

and he doth suffer that they may do this thing,

or that the people may do this thing unto them,

according to the hardness of their hearts,

that the judgments which he shall exercise upon them in his wrath may be just;

and the blood of the innocent shall stand as a witness against them,

yea, and cry mightily against them at the last day.

Alma 14:14

Now it came to pass that when the bodies of those

who had been cast into the fire were consumed,

and also the records which were cast in with them,

the chief judge of the land came

and stood before Alma and Amulek, as they were bound;

and said unto them:

After what ye have seen, will ye preach again unto this people,

that they shall be cast into a lake of fire and brimstone?

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.
