Ether 13:18 18 Wherefore, it came to pass that in
the first year that Ether
dwelt in the cavity of a rock, there were many people
who were
slain by the sword of those secret combinations, fighting
against
Coriantumr that they might obtain the kingdom.
Ether 13:19 19 And it came to pass that the sons
of Coriantumr fought much
and bled much.
Ether 13:20 20 And in the second year the word of
the Lord came to Ether,
that he should go and prophesy unto Coriantumr that,
if he would
repent, and all his household, the Lord would give
unto him his
kingdom and spare the people—
Ether 13:21 21 Otherwise they should be destroyed, and all his household save it were himself. And he should only live to see the fulfilling of the prophecies which had been spoken concerning another people receiving the land for their inheritance; and Coriantumr should receive a burial by them; and every soul should be destroyed save it were Coriantumr.
Ether 13:22 22 And it came to pass that Coriantumr
repented not, neither his
household, neither the people; and the wars ceased
not; and they
sought to kill Ether, but he fled from before them
and hid again
in the cavity of the rock.
Ether 13:23 23 And it came to pass that there arose
up Shared, and he also
gave battle unto Coriantumr; and he did beat him,
insomuch that
in the third year he did bring him into captivity.
Ether 13:24 24 And the sons of Coriantumr, in the
fourth year, did beat
Shared, and did obtain the kingdom again unto their
father.
Ether 13:25 25 Now there began to be a war upon
all the face of the land,
every man with his band fighting for that which he
desired.
Ether 13:26 26 And there were robbers, and in fine,
all manner of wickedness
upon all the face of the land.
Ether 13:27 27 And it came to pass that Coriantumr
was exceedingly angry
with Shared, and he went against him with his armies
to battle;
and they did meet in great anger, and they did meet
in the valley
of Gilgal; and the battle became exceedingly sore.
Ether 13:28 28 And it came to pass that Shared fought
against him for the
space of three days. And it came to pass that
Coriantumr beat
him, and did pursue him until he came to the plains
of Heshlon.
Ether 13:29 29 And it came to pass that Shared gave
him battle again upon
the plains; and behold, he did beat Coriantumr, and
drove him
back again to the valley of Gilgal.
Ether 13:30 30 And Coriantumr gave Shared battle
again in the valley of
Gilgal, in which he beat Shared and slew him.
Ether 13:31 31 And Shared wounded Coriantumr in
his thigh, that he did not
go to battle again for the space of two years, in
which time all
the people upon the face of the land were shedding
blood, and
there was none to restrain them.
