Alma 47:2, 8

Alma 47:2

And it came to pass that

when the proclamation had gone forth among them

they were exceedingly afraid;

yea, they feared to displease the king,

and they also feared to go to battle against the Nephites

lest they should lose their lives.

And it came to pass that they would not,

or the more part of them would not,

obey the commandments of the king.

Alma 47:8

Now it was not Amalickiah's intention

to give them battle according to the commandments of the king;

but behold, it was his intention to gain favor with the armies of the Lamanites,

that he might place himself at their head

and dethrone the king and take possession of the kingdom.
