Alma 35:8

Now the people of the Zoramites were angry

with the people of Ammon who were in Jershon,

and the chief ruler of the Zoramites, being a very wicked man,

sent over unto the people of Ammon

desiring them that they should cast out of their land

all those who came over from them into their land.



Alma 35:13

And the people of Ammon departed out of the land of Jershon,

and came over into the land of Melek,

and gave place in the land of Jershon for the armies of the Nephites,

that they might contend with the armies of the Lamanites

and the armies of the Zoramites;

and thus commenced a war betwixt the Lamanites and the Nephites,

in the eighteenth year of the reign of the judges;

and an account shall be given of their wars hereafter.



Alma 35:14

And Alma, and Ammon, and their brethren, and also the two sons of Alma

returned to the land of Zarahemla,

after having been instruments in the hands of God

of bringing many of the Zoramites to repentance;

and as many as were brought to repentance were driven out of their land;

but they have lands for their inheritance in the land of Jershon,

and they have taken up arms to defend themselves,

and their wives, and children, and their lands.
