Alma 46:9, 21, 30,

Alma 48:23

Alma 46:9

Yea, and we also see the great wickedness

one very wicked man can cause to take place among the children of men.

Alma 46:21

And it came to pass that when Moroni had proclaimed these words,

behold, the people came running together

with their armor girded about their loins,

rending their garments in token, or as a covenant,

that they would not forsake the Lord their God;

or, in other words, if they should transgress the commandments of God,

or fall into transgression,

and be ashamed to take upon them the name of Christ,

the Lord should rend them even as they had rent their garments.

Alma 46:30

Now Moroni thought it was not expedient

that the Lamanites should have any more strength;

therefore he thought to cut off the people of Amalickiah,

or to take them and bring them back,

and put Amalickiah to death;

yea, for he knew that he would stir up the Lamanites to anger against them,

and cause them to come to battle against them;

and this he knew that Amalickiah would do

that he might obtain his purposes.

Alma 48:23

Now, they were sorry to take up arms against the Lamanites,

because they did not delight in the shedding of blood;

yea, and this was not all —

they were sorry to be the means of sending so many of their brethren

out of this world into an eternal world, unprepared to meet their God.
