16 And it came to pass that when the thunderings and the lightnings and the storm and the tempest and the quakings of the earth did cease - For behold, they did last for about the space of three hours, And it was said by some that the time was greater;

17 Nevertheless, all these great and terrible things were done in about the space of three hours - And then, behold, there was darkness upon the face of the land.

18 And it came to pass that there was thick darkness upon the face of all the land, insomuch that the inhabitants thereof which had not fallen could feel the vapor of darkness;

19 And there could be no light because of the darkness, neither candles, neither torches; Neither could there be fire kindled with their fine and exceeding dry wood, so that there could not be any light at all;

20 And there was not any light seen, neither fire, nor glimmer, neither the sun, nor the moon, nor the stars, For so great were the mists of darkness which were upon the face of the land.

21 And it came to pass that it did last for the space of three days, that there was no light seen; And there was great mourning and howling and weeping among all the people continually;

22 Yea, great were the groanings of the people because of the darkness and the great destruction which had come upon them.

23 And in one place they were heard to cry, saying: "O that we had repented before this great and terrible day! And then would our brethren have been spared, And they would not have been burned in that great City Zarahemla."

24 And in another place they were heard to cry and mourn, saying: "O that we had repented before this great and terrible day and had not killed and stoned the prophets and cast them out!

25 Then would our mothers and our fair daughters and our children have been spared and not have been buried up in that great City Moronihah." And thus were the howlings of the people great and terrible.

26 And it came to pass that there was a voice heard among all the inhabitants of the earth upon all the face of this land, crying: "Wo! Wo! Wo unto this people! Wo unto the inhabitants of the whole earth, except they shall repent!
