Alma 53:11, 13

Alma 53:11

And because of their oath

they had been kept from taking up arms against their brethren;

for they had taken an oath that they never would shed blood more;

and according to their oath they would have perished;

yea, they would have suffered themselves

to have fallen into the hands of their brethren,

had it not been for the pity and the exceeding love

which Ammon and his brethren had had for them.

Alma 53:13

But it came to pass that

when they saw the danger, and the many afflictions and tribulations

which the Nephites bore for them,

they were moved with compassion

and were desirous to take up arms in the defence of their country.
