Alma 27:16

And it came to pass that as Ammon was going forth into the land,

that he and his brethren met Alma, over in the place of which has been spoken;

and behold, this was a joyful meeting.


Alma 27:17

Now the joy of Ammon was so great even that he was full;

yea, he was swallowed up in the joy of his God,

even to the exhausting of his strength;

and he fell again to the earth.


Alma 27:18

Now was not this exceeding joy?

Behold, this is joy which none receiveth

save it be the truly penitent and humble seeker of happiness.


Alma 27:19

Now the joy of Alma in meeting his brethren was truly great,

and also the joy of Aaron, of Omner, and Himni;

but behold their joy was not that to exceed their strength.
