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 43:20

Now the army of Zerahemnah was not prepared with any such thing;

they had only their swords and their cimeters,

their bows and their arrows,

their stones and their slings;

and they were naked, save it were a skin which was girded about their loins;

yea, all were naked, save it were the Zoramites and the Amalekites;



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 43:23

But it came to pass, as soon as they had departed into the wilderness

Moroni sent spies into the wilderness to watch their camp;

and Moroni, also, knowing of the prophecies of Alma, sent certain men unto him,

desiring him that he should inquire of the Lord

whither the armies of the Nephites should go

to defend themselves against the Lamanites.



Alma 44:20

And it came to pass that Moroni caused

that the work of death should cease again among the people.

And he took the weapons of war from the Lamanites;

and after they had entered into a covenant with him of peace

they were suffered to depart into the wilderness.
