Alma 59:9

And now as Moroni had supposed

that there should be men sent to the city of Nephihah,

to the assistance of the people to maintain that city,

and knowing that it was easier to keep the city

from falling into the hands of the Lamanites

than to retake it from them,

he supposed that they would easily maintain that city.

Alma 60:34

And now behold, I, Moroni, am constrained,

according to the covenant which I have made

to keep the commandments of my God;

therefore I would that ye should adhere to the word of God,

and send speedily unto me of your provisions and of your men,

and also to Helaman.
