Alma 57:1

And now it came to pass that I received an epistle from Ammoron, the king,

stating that if I would deliver up those prisoners of war whom we had taken

that he would deliver up the city of Antiparah unto us.

Alma 57:2

But I sent an epistle unto the king, that we were sure

our forces were sufficient to take the city of Antiparah by our force;

and by delivering up the prisoners for that city

we should suppose ourselves unwise,

and that we would only deliver up our prisoners on exchange.

Alma 57:3

And Ammoron refused mine epistle,

for he would not exchange prisoners;

therefore we began to make preparations to go against the city of Antiparah.

Alma 57:4

But the people of Antiparah did leave the city,

and fled to their other cities, which they had possession of, to fortify them;

and thus the city of Antiparah fell into our hands.

Alma 57:5

And thus ended the twenty and eighth year of the reign of the judges.
