Now they wept because of the fear of being slain.

Now when Ammon saw this his heart was swollen within him with joy;

for, said he, I will show forth my power unto these my fellow-servants,

or the power which is in me,

in restoring these flocks unto the king,

that I may win the hearts of these my fellow-servants,

that I may lead them to believe in my words.

Alma 17:35

Therefore they did not fear Ammon,

for they supposed that one of their men could slay him

according to their pleasure,

for they knew not that the Lord had promised Mosiah

that he would deliver his sons out of their hands;

neither did they know anything concerning the Lord;

therefore they delighted in the destruction of their brethren;

and for this cause they stood to scatter the flocks of the king.

Alma 18:5

Now this was the tradition of Lamoni, which he had received from his father,

that there was a Great Spirit.

Notwithstanding they believed in a Great Spirit

they supposed that whatsoever they did was right;

nevertheless, Lamoni began to fear exceedingly,

with fear lest he had done wrong in slaying his servants;

Alma 19:15

Now, when the servants of the king had seen that they had fallen,

they also began to cry unto God,

for the fear of the Lord had come upon them also,

for it was they who had stood before the king

and testified unto him concerning the great power of Ammon.

Alma 19:24

And it came to pass that when the multitude beheld

that the man had fallen dead, who lifted the sword to slay Ammon,

fear came upon them all,

and they durst not put forth their hands to touch him

or any of those who had fallen;

and they began to marvel again among themselves

what could be the cause of this great power,

or what all these things could mean.
