And it came to pass that we kept spies out round about,

to watch the movements of the Lamanites,

that they might not pass us by night nor by day

to make an attack upon our other cities which were on the northward.

Alma 57:9

And it came to pass that we did camp round about the city for many nights;

but we did sleep upon our swords, and keep guards,

that the Lamanites could not come upon us by night and slay us,

which they attempted many times;

but as many times as they attempted this their blood was spilt.

Alma 57:33

And it came to pass because of their rebellion

we did cause that our swords should come upon them.

And it came to pass that they did in a body run upon our swords,

in the which, the greater number of them were slain;

and the remainder of them broke through and fled from us.

Alma 58:9

And now the cause of these our embarrassments,

or the cause why they did not send more strength unto us, we knew not;

therefore we were grieved and also filled with fear,

lest by any means the judgments of God should come upon our land,

to our overthrow and utter destruction.
