Alma 59:3

And it came to pass that he immediately sent an epistle to Pahoran,

desiring that he should cause men to be gathered together

to strengthen Helaman, or the armies of Helaman,

insomuch that he might with ease maintain that part of the land

which he had been so miraculously prospered in regaining.

Alma 59:8

And their armies were so numerous

that the remainder of the people of Nephihah were obliged to flee before them;

and they came even and joined the army of Moroni.

Alma 60:12

Do ye suppose that, because so many of your brethren have been killed

it is because of their wickedness?

I say unto you,

if ye have supposed this ye have supposed in vain;

for I say unto you,

there are many who have fallen by the sword;

and behold it is to your condemnation;

Alma 60:16

Yea, had it not been for the war which broke out among ourselves;

yea, were it not for these king-men,

who caused so much bloodshed among ourselves;

yea, at the time we were contending among ourselves,

if we had united our strength as we hitherto have done;

yea, had it not been for the desire of power and authority

which those king-men had over us;

had they been true to the cause of our freedom,

and united with us, and gone forth against our enemies,

instead of taking up their swords against us,

which was the cause of so much bloodshed among ourselves;

yea, if we had gone forth against them in the strength of the Lord,

we should have dispersed our enemies,

for it would have been done, according to the fulfilling of his word.

Alma 60:28

Yea, behold I do not fear your power nor your authority,

but it is my God whom I fear;

and it is according to his commandments

that I do take my sword to defend the cause of my country,

and it is because of your iniquity that we have suffered so much loss.
