therefore he was not able to withstand his blows,

therefore he was slain by the sword.

Alma 2:20

And it came to pass that when Alma could pursue the Amlicites no longer

he caused that his people should pitch their tents in the valley of Gideon,

the valley being called after that Gideon

who was slain by the hand of Nehor with the sword;

and in this valley the Nephites did pitch their tents for the night.

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.
