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 18:2

And when they had all testified to the things which they had seen,

and he had learned of the faithfulness of Ammon in preserving his flocks,

and also of his great power in contending against those who sought to slay him,

he was astonished exceedingly, and said:

Surely, this is more than a man.

Behold, is not this the Great Spirit

who doth send such great punishments upon this people,

because of their murders?

Alma 18:10

Now when king Lamoni heard

that Ammon was preparing his horses and his chariots

he was more astonished, because of the faithfulness of Ammon, saying:

Surely there has not been any servant among all my servants

that has been so faithful as this man;

for even he doth remember all my commandments to execute them.

Alma 18:21

And now, if thou wilt tell me concerning these things,

whatsoever thou desirest I will give unto thee;

and if it were needed, I would guard thee with my armies;

but I know that thou art more powerful than all they;

nevertheless, whatsoever thou desirest of me

I will grant it unto thee.

Alma 19:33

And it came to pass that when Ammon arose

he also administered unto them,

and also did all the servants of Lamoni;

and they did all declare unto the people the selfsame thing —

that their hearts had been changed;

that they had no more desire to do evil.

Alma 20:26

And when he saw that Ammon had no desire to destroy him,

and when he also saw the great love he had for his son Lamoni,

he was astonished exceedingly, and said:

Because this is all that thou hast desired,

that I would release thy brethren,

and suffer that my son Lamoni should retain his kingdom,

behold, I will grant unto you

that my son may retain his kingdom from this time and forever;

and I will govern him no more —

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.
