Alma 1:1

Now it came to pass that

in the first year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi,

from this time forward,

king Mosiah having gone the way of all the earth,

having warred a good warfare,

walking uprightly before God,

leaving none to reign in his stead;

nevertheless he had established laws,

and they were acknowledged by the people;

therefore they were obliged to abide by the laws which he had made.

Alma 1:29

And now, because of the steadiness of the church

they began to be exceedingly rich,

having abundance of all things whatsoever they stood in need —

an abundance of flocks and herds, and fatlings of every kind,

and also abundance of grain, and of gold, and of silver, and of precious things,

and abundance of silk and fine-twined linen, and all manner of good homely cloth.

Alma 1:30

And thus, in their prosperous circumstances,

they did not send away any who were naked, or that were hungry,

or that were athirst, or that were sick, or that had not been nourished;

and they did not set their hearts upon riches;

therefore they were liberal to all,

both old and young, both bond and free, both male and female,

whether out of the church or in the church,

having no respect to persons as to those who stood in need.

Alma 2:5

And it came to pass that

the people assembled themselves together throughout all the land,

every man according to his mind,

whether it were for or against Amlici,

in separate bodies,

having much dispute and wonderful contentions one with another.

Alma 2:28

Nevertheless, the Nephites being strengthened by the hand of the Lord,

having prayed mightily to him

that he would deliver them out of the hands of their enemies,

therefore the Lord did hear their cries, and did strengthen them,

and the Lamanites and the Amlicites did fall before them.

Alma 3:1

And it came to pass that

the Nephites who were not slain by the weapons of war,

after having buried those who had been slain

— now the number of the slain were not numbered,

because of the greatness of their number —

after they had finished burying their dead

they all returned to their lands,

and to their houses, and their wives, and their children.
