52 And the blood of the innocent shall stand as a witness against them, yea, and cry mightily against them at the last day.
53 Now Amulek said unto Alma, Behold, perhaps they will burn us also.
54 And Alma said, Be it according to the will of the Lord. But behold, our work is not finished; therefore they burn us not.
55 Now it came to pass that when the bodies of those who had been cast into the fire, were consumed, and also the records which were cast in with them, the chief judge of the land came and stood before Alma and Amulek, as they were bound;
56 And he smote them with his hand upon their cheeks and said unto them, After what ye have seen, will ye preach again unto this people, that they shall be cast into a lake of fire and brimstone?
57 Behold, ye see that ye had not power to save these who had been cast into the fire; neither has God saved them because they were of thy faith.
58 And the judge smote them upon their cheeks, and asked, What say ye for yourselves?
59 Now this judge was after the order and faith of Nehor, who slew Gideon.
60 And it came to pass that Alma and Amulek answered him nothing; and he smote them again, and delivered them to the officers to be cast into prison.
61 And when they had been cast into prison three days, there came many lawyers, and judges, and priests, and teachers, who were of the profession of Nehor;
62 And they came in unto the prison to see them, and they questioned them about many words; but they answered them nothing.
