Alma 24:18, 25



Alma 24:18

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

rather than shed the blood of their brethren

they would give up their own lives;

and rather than take away from a brother

they would give unto him;

and rather than spend their days in idleness

they would labor abundantly with their hands.



Alma 24:25

And it came to pass that they threw down their weapons of war,

and they would not take them again,

for they were stung for the murders which they had committed;

and they came down even as their brethren,

relying upon the mercies of those whose arms were lifted to slay them.
