Alma 23:14

And the Amalekites were not converted, save only one;

neither were any of the Amulonites;

but they did harden their hearts,

and also the hearts of the Lamanites in that part of the land

wheresoever they dwelt,

yea, and all their villages and all their cities.

Alma 24:8

And behold, I thank my great God

that he has given us a portion of his Spirit to soften our hearts,

that we have opened a correspondence with these brethren, the Nephites.

Alma 24:10

And I also thank my God, yea, my great God,

that he hath granted unto us that we might repent of these things,

and also that he hath forgiven us

of those our many sins and murders which we have committed,

and taken away the guilt from our hearts, through the merits of his Son.

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 24:24

Now when the Lamanites saw this

they did forbear from slaying them;

and there were many whose hearts had swollen in them

for those of their brethren who had fallen under the sword,

for they repented of the things which they had done.

Alma 26:24

For they said unto us:

Do ye suppose that ye can bring the Lamanites to the knowledge of the truth?

Do ye suppose that ye can convince the Lamanites

of the incorrectness of the traditions of their fathers,

as stiffnecked a people as they are;

whose hearts delight in the shedding of blood;

whose days have been spent in the grossest iniquity;

whose ways have been the ways of a transgressor from the beginning?

Now my brethren, ye remember that this was their language.

Alma 26:27

Now when our hearts were depressed, and we were about to turn back,

behold, the Lord comforted us, and said:

Go amongst thy brethren, the Lamanites,

and bear with patience thine afflictions,

and I will give unto you success.
