according to his prayers

and never having made it known,

therefore, when she saw

that all the servants of Lamoni had fallen to the earth,

and also her mistress, the queen, and the king,

and Ammon lay prostrate upon the earth,

she knew that it was the power of God;

and supposing that this opportunity,

by making known unto the people what had happened among them,

that by beholding this scene

it would cause them to believe in the power of God,

therefore she ran forth from house to house, making it known unto the people.

but grant that he may do according to his own desires

in whatsoever thing he thinketh,

then will I spare thee;

otherwise I will smite thee to the earth.
