Alma 53:14

But behold, as they were about to take their weapons of war,

they were overpowered by the persuasions of Helaman and his brethren,

for they were about to break the oath which they had made.

Alma 53:16

But behold, it came to pass they had many sons,

who had not entered into a covenant

that they would not take their weapons of war

to defend themselves against their enemies;

therefore they did assemble themselves together at this time,

as many as were able to take up arms,

and they called themselves Nephites.
