7 "And behold, I have sent a proclamation throughout this part of the land; And behold, they are flocking to us daily, to their arms, in the defense of their country and their freedom and to avenge our wrongs.

8 "And they have come unto us, insomuch that those which have risen up in rebellion against us are set at defiance, Yea, insomuch that they do fear us and durst not come out against us to battle.

9 "They have got possession of the Land - or the City of Zarahemla; They have appointed a king over them and he hath written unto the king of the Lamanites - In the which he hath joined an alliance with him,

10 In the which alliance, he hath agreed to maintain the City of Zarahemla, In the which maintenance, he supposeth will enable the Lamanites to conquer the remainder of the land; And he shall be placed king over this people when they shall be conquered under the Lamanites.

11 "And now, in your epistle ye hath censured me, but it mattereth not-I am not angry, but do rejoice in the greatness of your heart.

12 "I, Pahoron, do not seek for power, save only to retain my judgment seat, that I may preserve the rights and the liberty of my people;

13 My soul standeth fast in that liberty in the which God hath made us free!

14 "And now behold, we will resist wickedness, even unto bloodshed;

15 We would not shed the blood of the Lamanites, if they would stay in their own land;

16 We would not shed the blood of our brethren, if they would not rise up in rebellion and take the sword against us;

17 We would subject ourselves to the yoke of bondage, if it were requisite with the justice of God, or if He should command us so to do.
