Mosiah 9:1

I, Zeniff, having been taught in all the language of the Nephites,

and having had a knowledge of the land of Nephi,

or of the land of our fathers' first inheritance,

and having been sent as a spy among the Lamanites

that I might spy out their forces,

that our army might come upon them and destroy them —

but when I saw that which was good among them

I was desirous that they should not be destroyed.

Mosiah 10:2

And I set guards round about the land,

that the Lamanites might not come upon us again unawares and destroy us;

and thus I did guard my people and my flocks,

and keep them from falling into the hands of our enemies.

Mosiah 10:7

But I had sent my spies out round about the land of Shemlon,

that I might discover their preparations,

that I might guard against them,

that they might not come upon my people and destroy them.
