Alma 56:43, 50

Alma 56:43

And now, whether they were overtaken by Antipus we knew not,

but I said unto my men:

Behold, we know not but they have halted

for the purpose that we should come against them,

that they might catch us in their snare;

Alma 56:50

The army of Antipus being weary,

because of their long march in so short a space of time,

were about to fall into the hands of the Lamanites;

and had I not returned with my two thousand

they would have obtained their purpose.
