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 57:17

But it came to pass that on the morrow they did return.

And now behold, we did not inquire of them concerning the prisoners;

for behold, the Lamanites were upon us,

and they returned in season to save us from falling into their hands.

For behold, Ammoron had sent to their support a new supply of provisions

and also a numerous army of men.
