And Moroni also sent unto him, desiring him

that he would be faithful in maintaining that quarter of the land,

and that he would seek every opportunity

to scourge the Lamanites in that quarter, as much as was in his power,

that perhaps he might take again by stratagem or some other way

those cities which had been taken out of their hands;

and that he also would fortify and strengthen the cities round about,

which had not fallen into the hands of the Lamanites.



Alma 52:13

And thus he was endeavoring to harass the Nephites,

and to draw away a part of their forces to that part of the land,

while he had commanded those whom he had left

to possess the cities which he had taken,

that they should also harass the Nephites on the borders by the east sea,

and should take possession of their lands

as much as it was in their power,

according to the power of their armies.



Alma 53:10

And now behold, I have somewhat to say concerning the people of Ammon,

who, in the beginning, were Lamanites;

but by Ammon and his brethren,

or rather by the power and word of God,

they had been converted unto the Lord;

and they had been brought down into the land of Zarahemla,

and had ever since been protected by the Nephites.
