Alma 46:37

And they began to have peace again in the land;

and thus they did maintain peace in the land

until nearly the end of the nineteenth year of the reign of the judges.

Alma 48:1

And now it came to pass that,

as soon as Amalickiah had obtained the kingdom

he began to inspire the hearts of the Lamanites against the people of Nephi;

yea, he did appoint men to speak

unto the Lamanites from their towers,

against the Nephites.

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.

Alma 49:22

Now when they found

that they could not obtain power over the Nephites by the pass,

they began to dig down their banks of earth

that they might obtain a pass to their armies,

that they might have an equal chance to fight;

but behold, in these attempts they were swept off

by the stones and arrows which were thrown at them;

and instead of filling up their ditches by pulling down the banks of earth,

they were filled up in a measure with their dead and wounded bodies.
