And it came to pass that

the armies of the Nephites were driven back again to the land of Desolation.

And while they were yet weary,

and they had a sore battle,

insomuch that the Lamanites did take possession of the city Desolation,

and did slay many of the Nephites, and did take many prisoners.

And when the Nephites saw that they had driven the Lamanites

they did again boast of their own strength;

and they went forth in their own might,

and took possession again of the city Desolation.

both the Nephites and the Lamanites.

And it is impossible for the tongue to describe,

or for man to write a perfect description

of the horrible scene of the blood and carnage

which was among the people, both of the Nephites and of the Lamanites;

and every heart was hardened,

so that they delighted in the shedding of blood continually.

Mormon 5:1

And it came to pass that I did go forth among the Nephites,

and did repent of the oath which I had made

that I would no more assist them;

and they gave me command again of their armies,

for they looked upon me

as though I could deliver them from their afflictions.
