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.

Alma 17:4

and they had been teaching the word of God

for the space of fourteen years among the Lamanites,

having had much success in bringing many to the knowledge of the truth;

yea, by the power of their words many were brought before the altar of God,

to call on his name and confess their sins before him.

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.
