3 Nephi 8:21

And there could be no light, because of the darkness,

neither candles, neither torches;

neither could there be fire kindled with their fine and exceedingly dry wood,

so that there could not be any light at all;



3 Nephi 8:23

And it came to pass that it did last for the space of three days

that there was no light seen;

and there was great mourning and howling and weeping

among all the people continually;

yea, great were the groanings of the people,

because of the darkness and the great destruction

which had come upon them.



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.
