Alma 54:11

but behold, it supposeth me that I talk to you concerning these things in vain;

or it supposeth me that thou art a child of hell;

therefore I will close my epistle by telling you

that I will not exchange prisoners, save it be on conditions

that ye will deliver up a man and his wife and his children, for one prisoner;

if this be the case that ye will do it, I will exchange.



Alma 54:13

Behold, I am in my anger, and also my people;

ye have sought to murder us,

and we have only sought to defend ourselves.

but behold, if ye seek to destroy us more

we will seek to destroy you;

yea, and we will seek our land,

the land of our first inheritance.

And if it so be that there is a devil and a hell,

behold will he not send you there

to dwell with my brother whom ye have murdered,

whom ye have hinted that he hath gone to such a place?

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.



Alma 55:31

but behold, the Nephites were not slow

to remember the Lord their God in this their time of affliction.

They could not be taken in their snares;

yea, they would not partake of their wine,

save they had first given to some of the Lamanite prisoners.
