Alma 17:2

Now these sons of Mosiah were with Alma

at the time the angel first appeared unto him;

therefore Alma did rejoice exceedingly to see his brethren;

and what added more to his joy,

they were still his brethren in the Lord;

yea, and they had waxed strong in the knowledge of the truth;

for they were men of a sound understanding

and they had searched the scriptures diligently,

that they might know the word of God.

For as sure as thou livest,

behold, I have seen my Redeemer;

and he shall come forth, and be born of a woman,

and he shall redeem all mankind who believe on his name.

and he sunk again with joy;

and the queen also sunk down,

being overpowered by the Spirit.

Alma 19:16

And it came to pass that they did call on the name of the Lord, in their might,

who is one of the children of a liar?

And now when Lamoni had rehearsed unto him all these things,

behold, to his astonishment, his father was angry with him, and said:

Lamoni, thou art going to deliver these Nephites, who are sons of a liar.

Behold, he robbed our fathers;

and now his children are also come amongst us

that they may, by their cunning and their lyings, deceive us,

that they again may rob us of our property.

Alma 20:30

And, as it happened, it was their lot

to have fallen into the hands of a more hardened and a more stiffnecked people;

therefore they would not hearken unto their words,

and they had cast them out, and had smitten them,

and had driven them from house to house, and from place to place,

even until they had arrived in the land of Middoni;

and there they were taken and cast into prison,

and bound with strong cords, and kept in prison for many days,

and were delivered by Lamoni and Ammon.
