Alma 27:29

therefore they would suffer death in the most aggravating and distressing manner which could be inflicted by their brethren, before they would take the sword or the cimeter to smite them.

They would let their relatives kill them in the worst and most painful way before they would pick up a sword to fight back.

They would endure the most brutal and agonizing deaths their enemies could inflict before they’d ever raise a sword against another person.
