Alma 50:22

And those who were faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord

were delivered at all times,

whilst thousands of their wicked brethren have been consigned

to bondage, or to perish by the sword,

or to dwindle in unbelief, and mingle with the Lamanites.

Alma 50:26

For behold, the people who possessed the land of Morianton

did claim a part of the land of Lehi;

therefore there began to be a warm contention between them,

insomuch that the people of Morianton took up arms against their brethren,

and they were determined by the sword to slay them.
