Alma 46:20

Behold, whosoever will maintain this title upon the land,

let them come forth in the strength of the Lord,

and enter into a covenant

that they will maintain their rights, and their religion,

that the Lord God may bless them.

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.
