3 Nephi 11:3

And it came to pass that while they were thus conversing one with another,

they heard a voice as if it came out of heaven;

and they cast their eyes round about,

for they understood not the voice which they heard;

and it was not a harsh voice, neither was it a loud voice;

nevertheless, and notwithstanding it being a small voice

it did pierce them that did hear to the center,

insomuch that there was no part of their frame that it did not cause to quake;

yea, it did pierce them to the very soul, and did cause their hearts to burn.

and he came down and stood in the midst of them;

and the eyes of the whole multitude were turned upon him,

and they durst not open their mouths, even one to another,

and wist not what it meant,

for they thought it was an angel that had appeared unto them.
