saw the preparations of the Lamanites to destroy their brethren,

that they might hold a council with Lamoni

and also with his brother Anti-Nephi-Lehi,

what they should do to defend themselves against the Lamanites.

and began to slay them with the sword.

for those of their brethren who had fallen under the sword,

for they repented of the things which they had done.

behold, the Lord comforted us, and said:

Go amongst thy brethren, the Lamanites,

and bear with patience thine afflictions,

and I will give unto you success.
