Alma 43:11

Yea, and they also knew the extreme hatred of the Lamanites

towards their brethren, who were the people of Anti-Nephi-Lehi,

who were called the people of Ammon —

and they would not take up arms,

yea, they had entered into a covenant and they would not break it —

Alma 43:44

who were their chief captains and leaders,

who was their chief captain, or their chief leader and commander;

yea, they did fight like dragons,

and many of the Nephites were slain by their hands,

yea, for they did smite in two many of their head-plates,

and they did pierce many of their breastplates,

and they did smite off many of their arms;

and thus the Lamanites did smite in their fierce anger.

Alma 44:5

And now, Zerahemnah, I command you,

in the name of that all-powerful God, who has strengthened our arms

that we have gained power over you, by our faith,

by our religion, and by our rites of worship, and by our church,

and by the sacred support which we owe to our wives and our children,

by that liberty which binds us to our lands and our country;

yea, and also by the maintenance of the sacred word of God,

to which we owe all our happiness;

and by all that is most dear unto us —
