and the saying went abroad in the church

that he was taken up by the Spirit,

therefore, for this cause we know nothing concerning his death and burial.

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

even as we have cast our garments at thy feet

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

Moroni said unto them:

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

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

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

Now we will return in our record to Amalickiah

and those who had fled with him into the wilderness;

for, behold, he had taken those who went with him,

and went up in the land of Nephi among the Lamanites,

and did stir up the Lamanites to anger against the people of Nephi,

insomuch that the king of the Lamanites sent a proclamation

throughout all his land, among all his people,

that they should gather themselves together again

to go to battle against the Nephites.
