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

to anger against their brethren.

And this they did,
it being in their view a testimony to God, and also to men,
that they never would use weapons again for the shedding of man's blood;
and this they did, vouching and covenanting with God, that

they would give unto him;
and rather than spend their days in idleness
they would labor abundantly with their hands.

whithersoever the enemy listeth to carry them.
