from their support after this manner,

they were still determined to maintain the city;

that we should take those provisions and send them to Judea,

and our prisoners to the land of Zarahemla.

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.

And it came to pass that when they saw

that we were not strong, according to our numbers,

and fearing that we should cut them off from their support

except they should come out to battle against us and kill us,

and also supposing that they could easily destroy us with their numerous hosts,

therefore they began to make preparations to come out against us to battle.
