Ether 6:25 25 And it came to pass that they chose even the firstborn of the brother of Jared; and his name was Pagag.  And it came to pass that he refused and would not be their king.  And the people would that his father should constrain him, but his father would not; and he commanded them that they should constrain no man to be their king.

Ether 6:26 26 And it came to pass that they chose all the brothers of
Pagag, and they would not.

Ether 6:27 27 And it came to pass that neither would the sons of Jared,
even all save it were one; and Orihah was anointed to be king
over the people.

Ether 6:28 28 And he began to reign, and the people began to prosper; and
they became exceedingly rich.

Ether 6:29 29 And it came to pass that Jared died, and his brother also.

Ether 6:30 30 And it came to pass that Orihah did walk humbly before the
Lord, and did remember how great things the Lord had done for his
father, and also taught his people how great things the Lord had
done for their fathers.

Ether 7
Chapter 7

Ether 7:1 1 And it came to pass that Orihah did execute judgment upon the
land in righteousness all his days, whose days were exceedingly
many.

Ether 7:2 2 And he begat sons and daughters; yea, he begat thirty and one,
among whom were twenty and three sons.

Ether 7:3 3 And it came to pass that he also begat Kib in his old age. 
And it came to pass that Kib reigned in his stead; and Kib begat
Corihor.

Ether 7:4 4 And when Corihor was thirty and two years old he rebelled
against his father, and went over and dwelt in the land of Nehor;
and he begat sons and daughters, and they became exceedingly
fair; wherefore Corihor drew away many people after him.

Ether 7:5 5 And when he had gathered together an army he came up unto the
land of Moron where the king dwelt, and took him captive, which
brought to pass the saying of the brother of Jared that they
would be brought into captivity.

Ether 7:6 6 Now the land of Moron, where the king dwelt, was near the land
which is called Desolation by the Nephites.

Ether 7:7 7 And it came to pass that Kib dwelt in captivity, and his
people under Corihor his son, until he became exceedingly old;
nevertheless Kib begat Shule in his old age, while he was yet in
captivity.

Ether 7:8 8 And it came to pass that Shule was angry with his brother; and
Shule waxed strong, and became mighty as to the strength of a
man; and he was also mighty in judgment.

Ether 7:9 9 Wherefore, he came to the hill Ephraim, and he did molten out of the hill, and made swords out of steel for those whom he had drawn away with him; and after he had armed them with swords he returned to the city Nehor and gave battle unto his brother Corihor, by which means he obtained the kingdom and restored it unto his father Kib.
