Alma 23:1

Behold, now it came to pass that

the king of the Lamanites sent a proclamation among all his people,

that they should not lay their hands on Ammon, or Aaron, or Omner, or Himni,

nor either of their brethren who should go forth preaching the word of God,

in whatsoever place they should be, in any part of their land.

Alma 23:2

Yea, he sent a decree among them,

that they should not lay their hands on them

to bind them, or to cast them into prison;

neither should they spit upon them, nor smite them,

nor cast them out of their synagogues, nor scourge them;

neither should they cast stones at them,

but that they should have free access to their houses,

and also their temples, and their sanctuaries.

Alma 24:6

Now there was not one soul among all the people

who had been converted unto the Lord

that would take up arms against their brethren;

nay, they would not even make any preparations for war;

yea, and also their king commanded them that they should not.
