of the cloud of darkness which did overshadow them; yea, and also

       they were immovable because of the fear which did come upon them.

      Helaman 5:35

       35 Now there was one among them who was a Nephite by birth, who

       had once belonged to the church of God but had dissented from

       them.

      Helaman 5:36

       36 And it came to pass that he turned him about, and behold, he

       saw through the cloud of darkness the faces of Nephi and Lehi;

       and behold, they did shine exceedingly, even as the faces of

       angels. And he beheld that they did lift their eyes to heaven;

       and they were in the attitude as if talking or lifting their

       voices to some being whom they beheld.

      Helaman 5:37

       37 And it came to pass that this man did cry unto the multitude,

       that they might turn and look. And behold, there was power given

       unto them that they did turn and look; and they did behold the

       faces of Nephi and Lehi.

      Helaman 5:38

       38 And they said unto the man: Behold, what do all these things

       mean, and who is it with whom these men do converse?

      Helaman 5:39

       39 Now the man's name was Aminadab. And Aminadab said unto

       them: They do converse with the angels of God.

      Helaman 5:40

       40 And it came to pass that the Lamanites said unto him: What

       shall we do, that this cloud of darkness may be removed from

       overshadowing us?

      Helaman 5:41

       41 And Aminadab said unto them: You must repent, and cry unto

       the voice, even until ye shall have faith in Christ, who was

       taught unto you by Alma, and Amulek, and Zeezrom; and when ye

       shall do this, the cloud of darkness shall be removed from

       overshadowing you.

      Helaman 5:42

       42 And it came to pass that they all did begin to cry unto the

       voice of him who had shaken the earth; yea, they did cry even

       until the cloud of darkness was dispersed.

      Helaman 5:43

       43 And it came to pass that when they cast their eyes about, and

       saw that the cloud of darkness was dispersed from overshadowing

       them, behold, they saw that they were encircled about, yea every

       soul, by a pillar of fire.

      Helaman 5:44

       44 And Nephi and Lehi were in the midst of them; yea, they were

       encircled about; yea, they were as if in the midst of a flaming

       fire, yet it did harm them not, neither did it take hold upon the

       walls of the prison; and they were filled with that joy which is

       unspeakable and full of glory.

      Helaman 5:45

       45 And behold, the Holy Spirit of God did come down from heaven,

       and did enter into their hearts, and they were filled as if with

       fire, and they could speak forth marvelous words.

      Helaman 5:46

       46 And it came to pass that there came a voice unto them, yea, a

       pleasant voice, as if it were a whisper, saying:

      Helaman 5:47

       47 Peace, peace be unto you, because of your faith in my Well

       Beloved, who was from the foundation of the world.

      Helaman 5:48

       48 And now, when they heard this they cast up their eyes as if

       to behold from whence the voice came; and behold, they saw the

       heavens open; and angels came down out of heaven and ministered

       unto them.

      Helaman 5:49

       49 And there were about three hundred souls who saw and heard

       these things; and they were bidden to go forth and marvel not,

       neither should they doubt.

      Helaman 5:50

       50 And it came to pass that they did go forth, and did minister

       unto the people, declaring throughout all the regions round about

       all the things which they had heard and seen, insomuch that the

       more part of the Lamanites were convinced of them, because of the

       greatness of the evidences which they had received.

      Helaman 5:51

       51 And as many as were convinced did lay down their weapons of

       war, and also their hatred and the tradition of their fathers.

      Helaman 5:52

       52 And it came to pass that they did yield up unto the Nephites

       the lands of their possession.

       1 And it came to pass that when the sixty and second year of the

       reign of the judges had ended, all these things had happened and

       the Lamanites had become, the more part of them, a righteous

       people, insomuch that their righteousness did exceed that of the

       Nephites because of their firmness and their steadiness in the

       faith.

      Helaman 6:2

       2 For behold, there were many of the Nephites who had become

       hardened and impenitent and grossly wicked, insomuch that they

       did reject the word of God and all the preaching and prophesying

       which did come among them.

      Helaman 6:3

       3 Nevertheless, the people of the church did have great joy

       because of the conversion of the Lamanites, yea, because of the

       church of God, which had been established among them. And they

       did fellowship one with another and did rejoice one with another,

       and did have great joy.

      Helaman 6:4

       4 And it came to pass that many of the Lamanites did come down

       into the land of Zarahemla, and did declare unto the people of

       the Nephites the manner of their conversion, and did exhort them

       to faith and repentance.

      Helaman 6:5

       5 Yea, and many did preach with exceedingly great power and

       authority, unto the bringing down many of them into the depths of

       humility, to be the humble followers of God and the Lamb.
