Alma 62:42 - Alma 62:52
Duration: 2:02
Alma 62:42
And it came to pass that after Moroni had fortified those parts of the land
which were most exposed to the Lamanites,
until they were sufficiently strong,
he returned to the city of Zarahemla;
and also Helaman returned to the place of his inheritance;
and there was once more peace established among the people of Nephi.
Alma 62:43
And Moroni yielded up the command of his armies
into the hands of his son, whose name was Moronihah;
and he retired to his own house
that he might spend the remainder of his days in peace.
Alma 62:44
And Pahoran did return to his judgment-seat;
and Helaman did take upon him again
to preach unto the people the word of God;
for because of so many wars and contentions
it had become expedient
that a regulation should be made again in the church.
Alma 62:45
Therefore, Helaman and his brethren went forth,
and did declare the word of God with much power
unto the convincing of many people of their wickedness,
which did cause them to repent of their sins
and to be baptized unto the Lord their God.
Alma 62:46
And it came to pass that
they did establish again the church of God, throughout all the land.
Alma 62:47
Yea, and regulations were made concerning the law.
And their judges, and their chief judges were chosen.
Alma 62:48
And the people of Nephi began to prosper again in the land,
and began to multiply and to wax exceedingly strong again in the land.
And they began to grow exceedingly rich.
Alma 62:49
But notwithstanding their riches, or their strength, or their prosperity,
they were not lifted up in the pride of their eyes;
neither were they slow to remember the Lord their God;
but they did humble themselves exceedingly before him.
Alma 62:50
Yea, they did remember how great things the Lord had done for them,
that he had delivered them from death, and from bonds, and from prisons,
and from all manner of afflictions
and he had delivered them out of the hands of their enemies.
Alma 62:51
And they did pray unto the Lord their God continually,
insomuch that the Lord did bless them, according to his word,
so that they did wax strong and prosper in the land.
Alma 62:52
And it came to pass that all these things were done.
And Helaman died, in the thirty and fifth year
of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
