“The Lord Hath Delivered Him into Thy Hands”

References

• 1 Nephi 4:11–13

  And the Spirit said unto me again:

  “Behold the Lord hath delivered him into thy hands.”

  Yea, and I also knew that he had sought to take away mine own life; yea, and he would not hearken unto the commandments of the Lord; and he also had taken away our property.

  And it came to pass that the Spirit said unto me again:

  “Slay him, for the Lord hath delivered him into thy hands; Behold the Lord slayeth the wicked to bring forth his righteous purposes. It is better that one man should perish than that a nation should dwindle and perish in unbelief.”
