"Of the reign"

  1. 31 Among the Hebronites was Jerijah the chief, even among the Hebronites, according to the generations of his fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought for, and there were found among them mighty men of valour at Jazer of Gilead.
  2. 10 So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
    • • •
    19 And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
  3. 1 In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
  4. 19 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah was this passover kept.
  5. 24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
  6. 15 And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
  7. 1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah came this word from the Lord, saying,
  8. 1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah came this word unto Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
  9. 1 And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the Lord, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
  10. 34 ¶ The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
  11. 1 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.
  12. 1 And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him.
  13. 1 In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.
  14. 1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
  15. 4 For it came to pass in the commencement of the first year of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, (my father, Lehi, having dwelt at Jerusalem in all his days); and in that same year there came many prophets, prophesying unto the people that they must repent, or the great city Jerusalem must be destroyed.
  16. 12 And also a record of the Jews from the beginning, even down to the commencement of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah;
    13 And also the prophecies of the holy prophets, from the beginning, even down to the commencement of the reign of Zedekiah; and also many prophecies which have been spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah.
  17. 4 Upon the other plates should be engraven an account of the reign of the kings, and the wars and contentions of my people; wherefore these plates are for the more part of the ministry; and the other plates are for the more part of the reign of the kings and the wars and contentions of my people.
  18. 1 Now it came to pass that in the first year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi, from this time forward, king Mosiah having gone the way of all the earth, having warred a good warfare, walking uprightly before God, leaving none to reign in his stead; nevertheless he had established laws, and they were acknowledged by the people; therefore they were obliged to abide by the laws which he had made.
    2 And it came to pass that in the first year of the reign of Alma in the judgment-seat, there was a man brought before him to be judged, a man who was large, and was noted for his much strength.
    • • •
    23 Now this was in the
    • • •
    33 And it came to pass that by thus exercising the law upon them, every man suffering according to that which he had done, they became more still, and durst not commit any wickedness if it were known; therefore, there was much peace among the people of Nephi until the fifth year of the reign of the judges.
  19. 25 Now all these things were done, yea, all these wars and contentions were commenced and ended in the
    • • •
    27 For every man receiveth wages of him whom he listeth to obey, and this according to the words of the spirit of prophecy; therefore let it be according to the truth. And thus endeth the fifth year of the reign of the judges.
  20. 1 Now it came to pass in the
    • • •
    5 And it came to pass in the
    6 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    9 And thus, in this eighth year of the reign of the judges, there began to be great contentions among the people of the church; yea, there were envyings, and strife, and malice, and persecutions, and pride, even to exceed the pride of those who did not belong to the church of God.
    10 And thus ended the eighth year of the reign of the judges; and the wickedness of the church was a great stumbling-block to those who did not belong to the church; and thus the church began to fail in its progress.
    • • •
    20 And thus in the commencement of the ninth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi, Alma delivered up the judgment-seat to Nephihah, and confined himself wholly to the high priesthood of the holy order of God, to the testimony of the word, according to the spirit of revelation and prophecy.
  21. 2 And thus ended the ninth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
    3 And it came to pass in the commencement of the
  22. 6 Nevertheless, I did harden my heart, for I was called many times and I would not hear; therefore I knew concerning these things, yet I would not know; therefore I went on rebelling against God, in the wickedness of my heart, even until the fourth day of this seventh month, which is in the tenth year of the reign of the judges.
  23. 23 And it came to pass after they had thus suffered for many days, (and it was on the twelfth day, in the tenth month,
  24. 19 And thus ended the tenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  25. 1 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    12 And the Lamanites did not come again to war against the Nephites
    • • •
    21 And now after the church had been established throughout all the land—having got the victory over the devil, and the word of God being preached in its purity in all the land, and the Lord pouring out his blessings upon the people—thus ended the fourteenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  26. 7 And thus endeth the fifteenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi;
    • • •
    9 And this is the account of the wars and contentions among the Nephites, and also the wars between the Nephites and the Lamanites;
  27. 2 Now their dead were not numbered because of the greatness of their numbers; neither were the dead of the Nephites numbered—but it came to pass after they had buried their dead, and also after the days of fasting, and mourning, and prayer, (and it was in the sixteenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi) there began to be continual peace throughout all the land.
    • • •
    4 And thus the people did have no disturbance in all the sixteenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
    5 And it came to pass that in the commencement of the seventeenth year of the reign of the judges, there was continual peace.
    • • •
    32 Now Alma said unto him: Thou knowest that we do not glut ourselves upon the labors of this people; for behold I have labored even from the commencement of the reign of the judges until now, with mine own hands for my support, notwithstanding my many travels round about the land to declare the word of God unto my people.
  28. 12 And thus ended the
    13 And the people of Ammon departed out of the land of Jershon, and came over into the land of Melek, and gave place in the land of Jershon for the armies of the Nephites, that they might contend with the armies of the Lamanites and the armies of the Zoramites; and thus commenced a war betwixt the Lamanites and the Nephites, in the eighteenth year of the reign of the judges; and an account shall be given of their wars hereafter.
  29. 3 And now I return to an account of the wars between the Nephites and the Lamanites, in the
  30. 24 And thus
  31. 2 And it came to pass in the nineteenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi, that Alma came unto his son Helaman and said unto him: Believest thou the words which I spake unto thee concerning those records which have been kept?
    • • •
    20 And now it came to pass in the
  32. 37 And they began to have peace again in the land; and thus they did maintain peace in the land until nearly the
  33. 2 And thus he did inspire their hearts against the Nephites, insomuch that in the
  34. 29 And thus ended the nineteenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  35. 1 And now it came to pass that Moroni did not stop making preparations for war, or to defend his people against the Lamanites; for he caused that his armies should commence in the
    • • •
    17 And in these prosperous circumstances were the people of Nephi in the
    • • •
    23 But behold there never was a happier time among the people of Nephi, since the days of Nephi, than in the days of Moroni, yea, even at this time, in the twenty and first year of the reign of the judges.
    24 And it came to pass that the twenty and second year of the reign of the judges also ended in peace; yea, and also the twenty and third year.
    25 And it came to pass that in the
    • • •
    35 And it came to pass that the army which was sent by Moroni, which was led by a man whose name was Teancum, did meet the people of Morianton; and so stubborn were the people of Morianton, (being inspired by his wickedness and his flattering words) that a battle commenced between them, in the which Teancum did slay Morianton and defeat his army, and took them prisoners, and returned to the camp of Moroni. And thus ended the twenty and fourth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  36. 1 And now it came to pass in the
    • • •
    12 Yea, even Amalickiah did himself come down, at the head of the Lamanites. And it was in the twenty and fifth year of the reign of the judges; and it was at the same time that they had begun to settle the affairs of their contentions concerning the chief judge, Pahoran.
    • • •
    37 And thus endeth the twenty and fifth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi; and thus endeth the days of Amalickiah.
  37. 1 And now, it came to pass in the
    • • •
    14 And thus were the Nephites in those dangerous circumstances in the ending of the twenty and sixth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
    15 But behold, it came to pass in the
    • • •
    18 And it came to pass that Moroni did arrive with his army at the land of Bountiful, in the latter end of the twenty and seventh year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  38. 23 And thus ended the twenty and eighth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  39. 35 And thus ended the twenty and ninth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  40. 1 And now it came to pass in the
  41. 5 And thus ended the twenty and eighth year of the reign of the judges.
  42. 1 Now it came to pass in the
  43. 11 And thus ended the thirtieth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi; Moroni and Pahoran having restored peace to the land of Zarahemla, among their own people, having inflicted death upon all those who were not true to the cause of freedom.
    12 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    39 And thus
    • • •
    52 And it came to pass that all these things were done. And Helaman died, in the
  44. 1 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    3 And it came to pass that Moroni died also. And thus ended the thirty and sixth year of the reign of the judges.
    4 And it came to pass that in the

    10 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    16 And thus ended the thirty and ninth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  45. 1 And now behold, it came to pass in the
    • • •
    13 And now behold, Pacumeni was appointed, according to the voice of the people, to be a chief judge and a governor over the people, to reign in the stead of his brother Pahoran; and it was according to his right. And all this was done in the fortieth year of the reign of the judges; and it had an end.
    14 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    34 And thus ended the forty and first year of the reign of the judges.
  46. 1 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    12 And more of this Gadianton shall be spoken hereafter. And thus ended the forty and second year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
  47. 1 And now it came to pass in the
    • • •
    18 The forty and sixth year of the reign of the judges ended;
    • • •
    22 And it came to pass that the wars and contentions began to cease, in a small degree, among the people of the Nephites, in the latter end of the forty and eighth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
    23 And it came to pass in the
    • • •
    32 And it came to pass that there was peace and exceedingly great joy in the remainder of the forty and ninth year; yea, and also there was continual peace and great joy in the fiftieth year of the reign of the judges.
    33 And in the
    • • •
    37 And it came to pass in the
  48. 4 But it came to pass in the fifty and sixth year of the reign of the judges, there were dissenters who went up from the Nephites unto the Lamanites; and they succeeded with those others in stirring them up to anger against the Nephites; and they were all that year preparing for war.
    5 And in the
    • • •
    8 And thus those dissenters of the Nephites, with the help of a numerous army of the Lamanites, had obtained all the possession of the Nephites which was in the land southward. And all this was done in the fifty and eighth and ninth years of the reign of the judges.
    9 And it came to pass in the sixtieth year of the reign of the judges, Moronihah did succeed with his armies in obtaining many parts of the land; yea, they regained many cities which had fallen into the hands of the Lamanites.

    15 And it came to pass that in the
    • • •
    32 And it came to pass that all these iniquities did come unto them in the space of not many years, insomuch that a more part of it had come unto them in the sixty and seventh year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
