Alma 46:18

And he said:

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.

Alma 46:22

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 46:24

Yea, let us preserve our liberty as a remnant of Joseph;

yea, let us remember the words of Jacob, before his death,

for behold, he saw that a part of the remnant of the coat of Joseph

was preserved and had not decayed.

And he said —

Even as this remnant of garment of my son hath been preserved,

so shall a remnant of the seed of my son

be preserved by the hand of God, and be taken unto himself,

while the remainder of the seed of Joseph shall perish,

even as the remnant of his garment.

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.
