And now he had got the command of those parts of the Lamanites

who were in favor of the king;

and he sought to gain favor of those who were not obedient;

for thither had all the Lamanites fled;

for they discovered the army coming,

and, supposing that they were coming to destroy them,

therefore they fled to Onidah, to the place of arms.

Amalickiah sought the favor of the queen, and took her unto him to wife;

he obtained the kingdom;

yea, he was acknowledged king throughout all the land,

among all the people of the Lamanites,

who were composed of the Lamanites and the Lemuelites and the Ishmaelites,

and all the dissenters of the Nephites,

from the reign of Nephi down to the present time.

insomuch that in the latter end of the nineteenth year of the reign of the judges,

he sought also to reign over all the land,

yea, and all the people who were in the land,

the Nephites as well as the Lamanites.
