Helaman 1:28 28 But when Moronihah had discovered
this, he immediately sent
forth Lehi with an army round about to head them before
they
should come to the land Bountiful.
Helaman 1:29 29 And thus he did; and he did head
them before they came to the
land Bountiful, and gave unto them battle, insomuch
that they
began to retreat back towards the land of Zarahemla.
Helaman 1:30 30 And it came to pass that Moronihah
did head them in their
retreat, and did give unto them battle, insomuch that
it became
an exceedingly bloody battle; yea, many were slain,
and among the
number who were slain Coriantumr was also found.
Helaman 1:31 31 And now, behold, the Lamanites could
not retreat either way,
neither on the north, nor on the south, nor on the
east, nor on
the west, for they were surrounded on every hand by
the Nephites.
Helaman 1:32 32 And thus had Coriantumr plunged
the Lamanites into the midst
of the Nephites, insomuch that they were in the power
of the
Nephites, and he himself was slain, and the Lamanites
did yield
themselves into the hands of the Nephites.
Helaman 1:33 33 And it came to pass that Moronihah
took possession of the
city of Zarahemla again, and caused that the Lamanites
who had
been taken prisoners should depart out of the land
in peace.
Helaman 1:34 34 And thus ended the forty and first
year of the reign of the
judges.
Helaman 2
Chapter 2
Helaman 2:1 1 And it came to pass in the forty and second year of the reign of the judges, after Moronihah had established again peace between the Nephites and the Lamanites, behold there was no one to fill the judgment-seat; therefore there began to be a contention again among the people concerning who should fill the judgment-seat.
Helaman 2:2 2 And it came to pass that Helaman,
who was the son of Helaman,
was appointed to fill the judgment-seat, by the voice
of the
people.
Helaman 2:3 3 But behold, Kishkumen, who had murdered
Pahoran, did lay wait
to destroy Helaman also; and he was upheld by his
band, who had
entered into a covenant that no one should know his
wickedness.
Helaman 2:4 4 For there was one Gadianton, who was
exceedingly expert in
many words, and also in his craft, to carry on the
secret work of
murder and of robbery; therefore he became the leader
of the band
of Kishkumen.
Helaman 2:5 5 Therefore he did flatter them, and also Kishkumen, that if they would place him in the judgment-seat he would grant unto those who belonged to his band that they should be placed in power and authority among the people; therefore Kishkumen sought to destroy Helaman.
Helaman 2:6 6 And it came to pass as he went forth towards the judgment-seat to destroy Helaman, behold one of the servants of Helaman, having been out by night, and having obtained, through disguise, a knowledge of those plans which had been laid by this band to destroy Helaman—
