Alma 43:21

But they were not armed with breastplates, nor shields —

therefore, they were exceedingly afraid of the armies of the Nephites

because of their armor,

notwithstanding their number being so much greater than the Nephites.

Alma 43:45

Nevertheless, the Nephites were inspired by a better cause,

for they were not fighting for monarchy nor power

but they were fighting for their homes and their liberties,

their wives and their children, and their all,

yea, for their rites of worship and their church.
