Alma 17:31

And it came to pass that he flattered them by his words, saying:

My brethren, be of good cheer

and let us go in search of the flocks,

and we will gather them together

and bring them back unto the place of water;

and thus we will preserve the flocks unto the king

and he will not slay us.

Alma 18:4

And now, when the king heard these words,

he said unto them:

Now I know that it is the Great Spirit;

and he has come down at this time to preserve your lives,

that I might not slay you as I did your brethren.

Now this is the Great Spirit of whom our fathers have spoken.

Alma 20:15

But Lamoni said unto him:

I will not slay Ammon,

neither will I return to the land of Ishmael,

but I go to the land of Middoni that I may release the brethren of Ammon,

for I know that they are just men and holy prophets of the true God.

Alma 20:17

But Ammon stood forth and said unto him:

Behold, thou shalt not slay thy son;

nevertheless, it were better that he should fall than thee,

for behold, he has repented of his sins;

but if thou shouldst fall at this time, in thine anger,

thy soul could not be saved.
