The Book of Mormon

Helaman 6:1

1830 Edition

And it came to pass that when the sixty and second year of the reign of the Judges had ended, all these things had happened, and the Lamanites had become, the more part of them, a righteous people, insomuch that their righteousness did exceed that of the Nephites, because of their firmness, and their steadiness in the faith.

And it came to pass that when the sixty and second year of the reign of the Jjudges had ended, all these things had happened, and the Lamanites had become, the more part of them, a righteous people, insomuch that their righteousness did exceed that of the Nephites, because of their firmness, and their steadiness in the faith.

Simple English

When the sixty-second year of the judges’ rule ended, all these things had happened. Most of the Lamanites had become good people. They were even better than the Nephites because they were strong and steady in their faith.

Paraphrase

By the end of the sixty-second year, something remarkable had happened: most of the Lamanites had become truly good people—so committed to God that they actually lived more righteously than the Nephites. Their faith held firm and steady.
