30 Behold, we did start to go down to the land of Zarahemla with our
prisoners. And it came to pass that we did meet the spies of our armies, who
had been sent out to watch the camp of the Lamanites.
31 And they cried unto us, saying—Behold, the armies of the Lamanites are
marching towards the city of Cumeni; and behold, they will fall upon them, yea,
and will destroy our people.
32 And it came to pass that our prisoners did hear their cries, which
caused them to take courage; and they did rise up in rebellion against us.
33 And it came to
pass because of their rebellion we did cause that our swords should come upon
them. And it came to pass that they did in a body run upon our swords, in the
which, the greater number of them were slain; and the remainder of them broke
through and fled from us.
There is more to the story in Alma 57; if
you would like to know how the Lamanites came to be POW’s and the fate of the
city Cumeni.
Hahaha I loved this
