  18  Behold, we went forth even in wrath, with mighty threatenings to ^adestroy his church.

  6  For I went about with the sons of Mosiah, seeking to ^adestroy the church of God; but behold, God sent his holy angel to stop us by the way.

  7  But behold, the Lord in his great mercy sent his angel to declare unto me that I must stop the work of ^bdestruction among his people; yea, and I have seen an angel face to face, and he spake with me, and his voice was as thunder, and it shook the whole earth.
