Alma 49:4

But behold, how great was their disappointment;

for behold, the Nephites had dug up a ridge of earth round about them,

which was so high that the Lamanites could not cast

their stones and their arrows at them that they might take effect,

neither could they come upon them

save it was by their place of entrance.

Alma 49:20

Thus they were prepared,

yea, a body of their strongest men, with their swords and their slings,

to smite down all who should attempt

to come into their place of security by the place of entrance;

and thus were they prepared to defend themselves against the Lamanites.

Alma 49:21

And it came to pass that

the captains of the Lamanites brought up their armies

before the place of entrance,

and began to contend with the Nephites,

to get into their place of security;

but behold, they were driven back from time to time,

insomuch that they were slain with an immense slaughter.
