Alma 26:25

And moreover, they did say, Let us take up arms against them, that we destroy them and their iniquity out of the land, lest they overrun us and destroy us.

And they also said: Let us fight them. Let us destroy them and their evil out of the land. If we don’t, they will take over and destroy us.

“And they added, ‘Let’s take up weapons and wipe them out—get rid of them and their evil before they overrun us and destroy us.’”
