16
Yea, had it not been for the war which broke
out among ourselves; yea, were it not for these king-men, who caused so
much bloodshed among ourselves; yea, at the time we were contending among ourselves, if we had united our strength as we hitherto have done; yea, had it not been for the desire of power and authority which those king-men had over us; had
they been true to the cause of our freedom, and united with us, and
gone forth against our enemies, instead of taking up their swords
against us, which was the cause of so much bloodshed among ourselves;
yea, if we had gone forth against them in the strength of the Lord, we should have dispersed our enemies, for it would have been done, according to the fulfilling of his word.
