Omni 1:2

Wherefore, in my days, I would that ye should know

that I fought much with the sword to preserve my people, the Nephites,

from falling into the hands of their enemies, the Lamanites.

But behold, I of myself am a wicked man,

and I have not kept the statutes and the commandments of the Lord

as I ought to have done.

Omni 1:10

Behold, I, Abinadom, am the son of Chemish.

Behold, it came to pass that I saw much war and contention

between my people, the Nephites, and the Lamanites;

and I, with my own sword, have taken the lives of many of the Lamanites

in the defence of my brethren.

Omni 1:17

And at the time that Mosiah discovered them,

they had become exceedingly numerous.

Nevertheless, they had had many wars and serious contentions,

and had fallen by the sword from time to time;

and their language had become corrupted;

and they had brought no records with them;

and they denied the being of their Creator;

and Mosiah, nor the people of Mosiah, could understand them.
