     7 Now, these are the words which he said unto the people concerning the matter: I thank my God, my beloved people, that our great God has in goodness sent these our brethren, the Nephites, unto us to preach unto us, and to convince us of the traditions of our wicked fathers.
2. Alma 27: 30
     30 And thus they were a zealous and beloved people, a highly favored people of the Lord.
