Alma 27:23

And behold, we will set our armies between the land Jershon and the land Nephi,

that we may protect our brethren in the land Jershon;

and this we do for our brethren,

on account of their fear to take up arms against their brethren

lest they should commit sin;

and this their great fear came because of their sore repentance

which they had, on account of their many murders and their awful wickedness.

Alma 29:1

O that I were an angel, and could have the wish of mine heart,

that I might go forth and speak with the trump of God,

with a voice to shake the earth,

and cry repentance unto every people!

Alma 29:2

Yea, I would declare unto every soul, as with the voice of thunder,

repentance and the plan of redemption,

that they should repent and come unto our God,

that there might not be more sorrow upon all the face of the earth.

Alma 29:9

I know that which the Lord hath commanded me,

and I glory in it.

I do not glory of myself,

but I glory in that which the Lord hath commanded me;

yea, and this is my glory,

that perhaps I may be an instrument in the hands of God

to bring some soul to repentance;

and this is my joy.
