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 57:6

And it came to pass that in the commencement of the twenty and ninth year,

we received a supply of provisions,

and also an addition to our army,

from the land of Zarahemla, and from the land round about,

to the number of six thousand men,

besides sixty of the sons of the Ammonites

who had come to join their brethren, my little band of two thousand.

And now behold, we were strong,

yea, and we had also plenty of provisions brought unto us.
