Alma 23:16,

Alma 24:15

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 24:15

Oh, how merciful is our God!

And now behold, since it has been as much as we could do

to get our stains taken away from us, and our swords are made bright,

let us hide them away that they may be kept bright,

as a testimony to our God at the last day,

or at the day that we shall be brought to stand before him to be judged,

that we have not stained our swords in the blood of our brethren

since he imparted his word unto us and has made us clean thereby.
