Alma 56:40

Now they durst not turn to the right nor to the left lest they should be surrounded;

neither would I turn to the right nor to the left lest they should overtake me,

and we could not stand against them, but be slain,

and they would make their escape;

and thus we did flee all that day into the wilderness,

even until it was dark.

Alma 57:26

And now, their preservation was astonishing to our whole army,

yea, that they should be spared

while there was a thousand of our brethren who were slain.

And we do justly ascribe it to the miraculous power of God,

because of their exceeding faith in that which they had been taught to believe —

that there was a just God,

and whosoever did not doubt,

that they should be preserved by his marvelous power.
