Alma 24:11, 12, 16



Alma 24:11

And now behold, my brethren,

since it has been all that we could do,

(as we were the most lost of all mankind)

to repent of all our sins and the many murders which we have committed,

and to get God to take them away from our hearts,

for it was all we could do to repent sufficiently before God

that he would take away our stain —



Alma 24:12

Now, my best beloved brethren,

since God hath taken away our stains, and our swords have become bright,

then let us stain our swords no more with the blood of our brethren.



Alma 24:16

And now, my brethren, if our brethren seek to destroy us,

behold, we will hide away our swords,

yea, even we will bury them deep in the earth,

that they may be kept bright,

as a testimony that we have never used them,

at the last day;

and if our brethren destroy us,

behold, we shall go to our God and shall be saved.
