3 Nephi 3:16

And so great and marvellous were the words and prophecies of Lachoneus, that they did cause fear to come upon all the people, and they did exert themselves in their might, to do according to the words of Lachoneus.

The words and messages from Lachoneus were so great and amazing that they made all the people afraid. So they worked as hard as they could to do what Lachoneus said.

Lachoneus’s words and prophecies were so powerful that they struck fear in everyone. The people threw themselves into the work, determined to do exactly what he said.
