Alma 19:28 - Alma 19:36
Duration: 1:51
[Please note that this segment begins in the midst of Alma 19:28]
Alma 19:28
...
And while they were thus contending,
the woman servant who had caused the multitude to be gathered together came,
and when she saw the contention which was among the multitude
she was exceedingly sorrowful, even unto tears.
Alma 19:29
And it came to pass that she went and took the queen by the hand,
that perhaps she might raise her from the ground;
and as soon as she touched her hand
she arose and stood upon her feet,
and cried with a loud voice, saying:
O blessed Jesus, who has saved me from an awful hell!
O blessed God, have mercy on this people!
Alma 19:30
And when she had said this, she clasped her hands,
being filled with joy,
speaking many words which were not understood;
and when she had done this,
she took the king, Lamoni, by the hand,
and behold he arose and stood upon his feet.
Alma 19:31
And he, immediately,
seeing the contention among his people,
went forth and began to rebuke them,
and to teach them the words which he had heard from the mouth of Ammon;
and as many as heard his words believed,
and were converted unto the Lord.
Alma 19:32
But there were many among them who would not hear his words;
therefore they went their way.
Alma 19:33
And it came to pass that when Ammon arose
he also administered unto them,
and also did all the servants of Lamoni;
and they did all declare unto the people the selfsame thing —
that their hearts had been changed;
that they had no more desire to do evil.
Alma 19:34
And behold, many did declare unto the people
that they had seen angels and had conversed with them;
and thus they had told them things of God, and of his righteousness.
Alma 19:35
And it came to pass that there were many that did believe in their words;
and as many as did believe were baptized;
and they became a righteous people,
and they did establish a church among them.
Alma 19:36
And thus the work of the Lord did commence among the Lamanites;
thus the Lord did begin to pour out his Spirit upon them;
and we see that his arm is extended to all people
who will repent and believe on his name.
