Alma 43:8

For behold, his designs were to stir up the Lamanites to anger against the Nephites;

this he did that he might usurp great power over them,

and also that he might gain power over the Nephites

by bringing them into bondage.

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 43:34

where a part of the army of Moroni was concealed.

Alma 44:6

Yea, and this is not all;

I command you by all the desires which ye have for life,

that ye deliver up your weapons of war unto us,

and we will seek not your blood,

but we will spare your lives, if ye will go your way

and come not again to war against us.

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.

Alma 44:13

And it came to pass that the soldier who stood by,

who smote off the scalp of Zerahemnah,

took up the scalp from off the ground by the hair,

and laid it upon the point of his sword, and stretched it forth unto them,

saying unto them with a loud voice:

Alma 44:14

Even as this scalp has fallen to the earth,

which is the scalp of your chief,

so shall ye fall to the earth

except ye will deliver up your weapons of war

and depart with a covenant of peace.

Alma 44:16

Now it came to pass that Zerahemnah was exceedingly wroth,

and he did stir up the remainder of his soldiers to anger,

to contend more powerfully against the Nephites.
