Helaman 6:7

And behold, there was peace in all the land,

insomuch that the Nephites did go into whatsoever part of the land they would,

whether among the Nephites or the Lamanites.


Helaman 6:8

And it came to pass that the Lamanites did also go whithersoever they would,

whether it were among the Lamanites or among the Nephites;

and thus they did have free intercourse one with another,

to buy and to sell, and to get gain, according to their desire.


Helaman 6:9

And it came to pass that they became exceedingly rich,

both the Lamanites and the Nephites;

and they did have an exceeding plenty of gold, and of silver,

and of all manner of precious metals,

both in the land south and in the land north.


Helaman 6:10

Now the land south was called Lehi

and the land north was called Mulek,

which was after the son of Zedekiah;

for the Lord did bring Mulek into the land north,

and Lehi into the land south.


Helaman 6:11

And behold, there was all manner of gold in both these lands,

and of silver, and of precious ore of every kind;

and there were also curious workmen,

who did work all kinds of ore and did refine it;

and thus they did become rich.


Helaman 6:12

They did raise grain in abundance, both in the north and in the south;

and they did flourish exceedingly, both in the north and in the south.

And they did multiply and wax exceedingly strong in the land.

And they did raise many flocks and herds, yea, many fatlings.


Helaman 6:13

Behold their women did toil and spin,

and did make all manner of cloth,

of fine-twined linen and cloth of every kind,

to clothe their nakedness.

And thus the sixty and fourth year did pass away in peace.


Helaman 6:14

And in the sixty and fifth year they did also have great joy and peace,

yea, much preaching and many prophecies concerning that which was to come.

And thus passed away the sixty and fifth year.
