3 Nephi 3:2

Lachoneus, most noble and chief governor of the land,

behold, I write this epistle unto you,

and do give unto you exceedingly great praise

because of your firmness, and also the firmness of your people,

in maintaining that which ye suppose to be your right and liberty;

yea, ye do stand well, as if ye were supported by the hand of a god,

in the defence of your liberty, and your property, and your country,

or that which ye do call so.

Lachoneus did appoint chief captains over all the armies of the Nephites,

to command them at the time

that the robbers should come down out of the wilderness against them.

Now the chiefest among all the chief captains

and the great commander of all the armies of the Nephites was appointed,

and his name was Gidgiddoni.

3 Nephi 3:19

Now it was the custom among all the Nephites

to appoint for their chief captains, (save it were in their times of wickedness)

some one that had the spirit of revelation and also prophecy;

therefore, this Gidgiddoni was a great prophet among them,

as also was the chief judge.
