“Went Forth Against the City”

• Alma 62:7–10

  And it came to pass that Moroni and Pahoran went down with their armies into the land of Zarahemla, and went forth against the city, and did meet the men of Pachus, insomuch that they did come to battle. And behold, Pachus was slain and his men were taken prisoners, and Pahoran was restored to his judgment–seat.

  And the men of Pachus received their trial, according to the law, and also those king–men who had been taken and cast into prison; and they were executed according to the law; yea, those men of Pachus and those king–men, whosoever would not take up arms in the defense of their country, but would fight against it, were put to death.

  And thus it became expedient that this law should be strictly observed for the safety of their country; yea, and whosoever was found denying their freedom was speedily executed according to the law.
