behold, this war hath been waged to avenge their wrongs,

and to maintain and to obtain their rights to the government;

and I close my epistle to Moroni.

Alma 55:19

But behold, this was not the desire of Moroni;

he did not delight in murder or bloodshed,

but he delighted in the saving of his people from destruction;

and for this cause he might not bring upon him injustice,

he would not fall upon the Lamanites and destroy them in their drunkenness.

Now behold this was done in the night-time,

so that when the Lamanites awoke in the morning

they beheld that they were surrounded by the Nephites without,

and that their prisoners were armed within.

Alma 55:24

Now behold, this was the desire of Moroni.

He took them prisoners of war, and took possession of the city,

and caused that all the prisoners should be liberated, who were Nephites;

and they did join the army of Moroni, and were a great strength to his army.
