Helaman 5:27
27 And behold, when they had said these words, the earth shook
exceedingly, and the walls of the prison did shake as if they
were about to tumble to the earth; but behold, they did not fall.
And behold, they that were in the prison were Lamanites and
Nephites who were dissenters.
Helaman 5:28
28 And it came to pass that they were overshadowed with a cloud
of darkness, and an awful solemn fear came upon them.
Helaman 5:29
29 And it came to pass that there came a voice as if it were
above the cloud of darkness, saying: Repent ye, repent ye, and
seek no more to destroy my servants whom I have sent unto you to
declare good tidings.
Helaman 5:30
30 And it came to pass when they heard this voice, and beheld
