30 And after he had eaten and was filled, he said unto Amulek, I am Alma, and am the high priest over the church of God throughout the land.
31 And behold, I have been called to preach the word of God among all this people, according to the spirit of revelation and prophecy;
32 And I was in this land, and they would not receive me, but they cast me out, and I was about to set my back towards this land for ever.
33 But behold, I have been commanded that I should turn again and prophesy unto this people, yea, and to testify against them concerning their iniquities.
34 And now Amulek, because thou hast fed me, and took me in, thou art blessed; for I was an hungered, for I had fasted many days.
35 And Alma tarried many days with Amulek, before he began to preach unto the people.
36 And it came to pass that the people did wax more gross in their iniquities.
37 And the word came to Alma, saying, Go; and also say unto my servant Amulek, Go forth and prophesy unto this people, saying, Repent ye, for thus saith the Lord, Except ye repent, I will visit this people in mine anger; yea, and I will not turn my fierce anger away.
38 And Alma went forth, and also Amulek, among the people to declare the words of God unto them; and they were filled with the Holy Ghost;
39 And they had power given unto them, insomuch that they could not be confined in dungeons; neither were it possible that any man could slay them;
40 Nevertheless they did not exercise their power until they were bound in bands and cast into prison.
