went forth and began to rebuke them, and to teach them the words
which he had heard from the mouth of Ammon; and as many as heard
his words believed, and were converted unto the Lord.
Alma 19:32
32 But there were many among them who would not hear his words;
therefore they went their way.
Alma 19:33
33 And it came to pass that when Ammon arose he also
administered unto them, and also did all the servants of Lamoni;
and they did all declare unto the people the selfsame thing--that
their hearts had been changed; that they had no more desire to do
evil.
Alma 19:34
34 And behold, many did declare unto the people that they had
seen angels and had conversed with them; and thus they had told
them things of God, and of his righteousness.
Alma 19:35
35 And it came to pass that there were many that did believe in
their words; and as many as did believe were baptized; and they
became a righteous people, and they did establish a church among
them.
Alma 19:36
36 And thus the work of the Lord did commence among the
Lamanites; thus the Lord did begin to pour out his Spirit upon
them; and we see that his arm is extended to all people who will
repent and believe on his name.

unto Lamoni: Behold, my brother and brethren are in prison at
Middoni, and I go that I may deliver them.
Alma 20:4
4 Now Lamoni said unto Ammon: I know, in the strength of the
