Alma 23:16

And now it came to pass that

the king and those who were converted were desirous

that they might have a name,

that thereby they might be distinguished from their brethren;

therefore the king consulted with Aaron and many of their priests,

concerning the name that they should take upon them,

that they might be distinguished.



Alma 24:1

And it came to pass that the Amalekites and the Amulonites and the Lamanites

who were in the land of Amulon, and also in the land of Helam,

and who were in the land of Jerusalem,

and in fine, in all the land round about,

who had not been converted

and had not taken upon them the name of Anti-Nephi-Lehi,

were stirred up by the Amalekites and by the Amulonites

to anger against their brethren.



Alma 24:21

Now when the people saw that they were coming against them

they went out to meet them, and prostrated themselves before them to the earth,

and began to call on the name of the Lord;

and thus they were in this attitude

when the Lamanites began to fall upon them,

and began to slay them with the sword.



Alma 26:8

Blessed be the name of our God;

let us sing to his praise,

yea, let us give thanks to his holy name,

for he doth work righteousness forever.



Alma 26:36

Now if this is boasting, even so will I boast;

for this is my life and my light,

my joy and my salvation, and my redemption from everlasting wo.

Yea, blessed is the name of my God,

who has been mindful of this people,

who are a branch of the tree of Israel,

and has been lost from its body in a strange land;

yea, I say,

blessed be the name of my God,

who has been mindful of us,

wanderers in a strange land.
