And I did join my two thousand sons,

(for they are worthy to be called sons)

for which cause we have to mourn.

insomuch that when they saw the army of Antipus pursuing them, with their might,

they did not turn to the right nor to the left,

before Antipus should overtake them,

and this that they might not be surrounded by our people.

For as I had ever called them my sons

(for they were all of them very young)

even so they said unto me:

Father, behold our God is with us,

and he will not suffer that we should fall;

then let us go forth;

we would not slay our brethren if they would let us alone;

therefore let us go, lest they should overpower the army of Antipus.

because of their long march in so short a space of time,

were about to fall into the hands of the Lamanites;

they would have obtained their purpose.

and did cut off the spies of the Lamanites

that they should not return to the city.
