3 Nephi 8:19

And it came to pass that when the thunderings, and the lightnings,

and the storm, and the tempest, and the quakings of the earth did cease

for behold, they did last for about the space of three hours;

and it was said by some that the time was greater;

nevertheless, all these great and terrible things were done

in about the space of three hours —

and then behold, there was darkness upon the face of the land.



3 Nephi 10:2

For so great was the astonishment of the people

that they did cease lamenting and howling

for the loss of their kindred which had been slain;

therefore there was silence in all the land for the space of many hours.



3 Nephi 10:9

And it came to pass that thus did the three days pass away.

And it was in the morning,

and the darkness dispersed from off the face of the land,

and the earth did cease to tremble,

and the rocks did cease to rend, and the dreadful groanings did cease,

and all the tumultuous noises did pass away.



3 Nephi 10:10

And the earth did cleave together again, that it stood;

and the mourning, and the weeping, and the wailing

of the people who were spared alive did cease;

and their mourning was turned into joy,

and their lamentations into the praise and thanksgiving

unto the Lord Jesus Christ, their Redeemer.
