Alma 45:14

But whosoever remaineth, and is not destroyed in that great and dreadful day,

shall be numbered among the Lamanites,

and shall become like unto them,

all, save it be a few who shall be called the disciples of the Lord;

and them shall the Lamanites pursue

even until they shall become extinct.

And now, because of iniquity, this prophecy shall be fulfilled.

Alma 45:16

And he said:

Thus saith the Lord God —

Cursed shall be the land, yea, this land,

unto every nation, kindred, tongue, and people,

unto destruction, which do wickedly, when they are fully ripe;

and as I have said so shall it be;

for this is the cursing and the blessing of God upon the land,

for the Lord cannot look upon sin with the least degree of allowance.

Surely God shall not suffer that we, who are despised

because we take upon us the name of Christ,

shall be trodden down and destroyed,

until we bring it upon us by our own transgressions.

Now this was the covenant which they made,

and they cast their garments at the feet of Moroni, saying:

We covenant with our God, that we shall be destroyed,

even as our brethren in the land northward,

if we shall fall into transgression;

yea, he may cast us at the feet of our enemies,

even as we have cast our garments at thy feet

to be trodden under foot, if we shall fall into transgression.

Alma 46:23

Moroni said unto them:

Behold, we are a remnant of the seed of Jacob;

yea, we are a remnant of the seed of Joseph,

whose coat was rent by his brethren into many pieces;

yea, and now behold, let us remember to keep the commandments of God,

or our garments shall be rent by our brethren,

and we be cast into prison, or be sold, or be slain.

Alma 46:25

Now behold, this giveth my soul sorrow;

nevertheless, my soul hath joy in my son,

because of that part of his seed which shall be taken unto God.

Alma 46:27

And now who knoweth but what the remnant of the seed of Joseph,

which shall perish as his garment,

are those who have dissented from us?

Yea, and even it shall be ourselves if we do not stand fast in the faith of Christ.
