who believed in the flattering words of Amalickiah,

therefore they dissented even from the church;

notwithstanding their great victory which they had had over the Lamanites,

and their great rejoicings which they had had

because of their deliverance by the hand of the Lord.

with the armies of the Nephites,

to establish and to exercise authority over them.

having pursued after them in vain;

and thus Amalickiah, by his fraud, gained the hearts of the people.

while Amalickiah had thus been obtaining power by fraud and deceit,

Behold, I said that the city of Ammonihah had been rebuilt.

I say unto you, yea, that it was in part rebuilt;

because of the iniquity of the people,

they supposed that it would again become an easy prey for them.
