But there was one among them whose name was Alma,

he also being a descendant of Nephi.

And he was a young man,

but suffer that he might depart in peace.

which I have spoken unto you concerning this people,

I have suffered myself that I have fallen into your hands.

to commit so many sins and iniquities against God;

who had formed a church of God

through the strength and power of God,

and faith on the words which had been spoken by Abinadi.
