And there were many in the church

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,

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

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

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.

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.

except it were to preserve their lives.
