Alma 56:18, 23,

Alma 58:15

Alma 56:18

And now it came to pass that

when the Lamanites saw that Antipus had received a greater strength to his army,

they were compelled by the orders of Ammoron

to not come against the city of Judea, or against us, to battle.

Alma 56:23

For we knew in those cities they were not sufficiently strong to meet them;

therefore we were desirous, if they should pass by us,

to fall upon them in their rear,

and thus bring them up in the rear

at the same time they were met in the front.

We supposed that we could overpower them;

but behold, we were disappointed in this our desire.

Alma 58:15

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.
