Segment 2 of 3 [#172]
Relations with the Lamanites
Jacob 7:24 - Jacob 7:25
Duration: 0:34
Jacob 7:24
And it came to pass that many means were devised
to reclaim and restore the Lamanites to the knowledge of the truth;
but it all was vain,
for they delighted in wars and bloodshed,
and they had an eternal hatred against us, their brethren.
And they sought by the power of their arms to destroy us continually.
Jacob 7:25
Wherefore, the people of Nephi did fortify against them
with their arms, and with all their might,
trusting in the God and rock of their salvation;
wherefore, they became as yet, conquerors of their enemies.
