       gained power over Amgid, and obtained power over the remainder of

       the kingdom.

      Ether 10:33

       testified that a great curse should come upon the land, and also

       upon the people, and that there should be a great destruction

       among them, such an one as never had been upon the face of the

       earth, and their bones should become as heaps of earth upon the

       face of the land except they should repent of their wickedness.

      Ether 11:7

       7 And they hearkened not unto the voice of the Lord, because of
