Alma 30:53

But behold, the devil hath deceived me;

for he appeared unto me in the form of an angel, and said unto me:

Go and reclaim this people,

for they have all gone astray after an unknown God.

And he said unto me:

There is no God;

yea, and he taught me that which I should say.

And I have taught his words;

and I taught them because they were pleasing unto the carnal mind;

and I taught them, even until I had much success,

insomuch that I verily believed that they were true;

and for this cause I withstood the truth,

even until I have brought this great curse upon me.

Now, from this stand they did offer up, every man, the selfsame prayer unto God,

thanking their God that they were chosen of him,

and that their hearts were not stolen away

to believe in things to come, which they knew nothing about.

and upon all manner of fine goods.

And now when Alma heard this,

he turned him about, his face immediately towards him,

and he beheld with great joy;

for he beheld that their afflictions had truly humbled them,

and that they were in a preparation to hear the word.
