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.

Alma 58:16

And when we saw that they were making preparations to come out against us,

behold, I caused that Gid, with a small number of men,

should secrete himself in the wilderness,

and also that Teomner and a small number of men

should secrete themselves also in the wilderness.
