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.

3 Nephi 3:3

And it seemeth a pity unto me, most noble Lachoneus,

that ye should be so foolish and vain as to suppose

that ye can stand against so many brave men who are at my command,

who do now at this time stand in their arms,

and do await with great anxiety for the word —

Go down upon the Nephites and destroy them.

3 Nephi 4:16

And in the twenty and first year they did not come up to battle,

but they came up on all sides to lay siege round about the people of Nephi;

for they did suppose that

if they should cut off the people of Nephi from their lands,

and should hem them in on every side,

and if they should cut them off from all their outward privileges,

that they could cause them to yield themselves up according to their wishes.
