But behold, every man that lifted his club to smite Ammon,

he smote off their arms with his sword;

for he did withstand their blows

yea, and they were not few in number;

and he caused them to flee by the strength of his arm.

I would that ye should go in and see my husband,

for he has been laid upon his bed for the space of two days and two nights;

and that he ought to be placed in the sepulchre;

but as for myself, to me he doth not stink.

Alma 19:6

Now, this was what Ammon desired,

for he knew that king Lamoni was under the power of God;

he knew that the dark veil of unbelief was being cast away from his mind,

and the light which did light up his mind,

which was the light of the glory of God,

which was a marvelous light of his goodness —

yea, this light had infused such joy into his soul,

the cloud of darkness having been dispelled,

and that the light of everlasting life was lit up in his soul,

yea, he knew that this had overcome his natural frame,

and he was carried away in God —

And it came to pass that

Lamoni rehearsed unto him whither he was going,

for he feared to offend him.
