Alma 44:8



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 —

therefore, if they should fall into the hands of the Lamanites

they would be destroyed.



Alma 43:22

Behold, now it came to pass that

they durst not come against the Nephites in the borders of Jershon;

therefore they departed out of the land of Antionum into the wilderness,

and took their journey round about in the wilderness,

away by the head of the river Sidon,

that they might come into the land of Manti and take possession of the land;

for they did not suppose

that the armies of Moroni would know whither they had gone.



Alma 43:25

Now Moroni, leaving a part of his army in the land of Jershon,

lest by any means a part of the Lamanites should come into that land

and take possession of the city,

took the remaining part of his army

and marched over into the land of Manti.



Alma 43:30

And he also knowing that it was the only desire of the Nephites

to preserve their lands, and their liberty, and their church,

therefore he thought it no sin that he should defend them by stratagem;

therefore, he found by his spies which course the Lamanites were to take.



Alma 44:8

And now it came to pass that when Zerahemnah had heard these sayings

he came forth and delivered up his sword and his cimeter, and his bow

into the hands of Moroni,

and said unto him:

Behold, here are our weapons of war;

we will deliver them up unto you,

but we will not suffer ourselves to take an oath unto you,

which we know that we shall break, and also our children;

but take our weapons of war,

and suffer that we may depart into the wilderness;

otherwise we will retain our swords,

and we will perish or conquer.
