Mosiah 21:25

Now king Limhi had sent, previous to the coming of Ammon,

a small number of men to search for the land of Zarahemla;

but they could not find it,

and they were lost in the wilderness.


Mosiah 21:26

Nevertheless, they did find a land which had been peopled;

yea, a land which was covered with dry bones;

yea, a land which had been peopled and which had been destroyed;

and they, having supposed it to be the land of Zarahemla,

returned to the land of Nephi,

having arrived in the borders of the land

not many days before the coming of Ammon.


Mosiah 21:27

And they brought a record with them,

even a record of the people whose bones they had found;

and it was engraven on plates of ore.
