Mormon 6:11, 15



Mormon 6:11

And when they had gone through and hewn down all my people

save it were twenty and four of us,

(among whom was my son Moroni)

and we having survived the dead of our people,

did behold on the morrow,

when the Lamanites had returned unto their camps,

from the top of the hill Cumorah,

the ten thousand of my people who were hewn down,

being led in the front by me.



Mormon 6:15

And it came to pass that there were ten more

who did fall by the sword, with their ten thousand each;

yea, even all my people,

save it were those twenty and four who were with me,

and also a few who had escaped into the south countries,

and a few who had deserted over unto the Lamanites,

had fallen;

and their flesh, and bones, and blood lay upon the face of the earth,

being left by the hands of those who slew them

to molder upon the land, and to crumble and to return to their mother earth.
