The Amlicites had marked themselves according to the prophetic word—The Lamanites had been cursed for their rebellion—Men bring their own curses upon themselves—The Nephites defeat another Lamanite army. About 87–86 B.C.
And
it
came
to
pass
that
the
Nephites
who
were
not
a
slain
by
the
weapons
of
war,
after
having
buried
those
who
had
been
slain—now
the
number
of
the
slain
were
not
numbered,
because
of
the
greatness
of
their
number—after
they
had
finished
burying
their
dead
they
all
returned
to
their
lands,
and
to
their
houses,
and
their
wives,
and
their
children.
2 Now
many
women
and
children
had
been
slain
with
the
sword,
and
also
many
of
their
flocks
and
their
herds;
and
also
many
of
their
fields
of
grain
were
destroyed,
for
they
were
trodden
down
by
the
hosts
of
men.
3 And
now
as
many
of
the
Lamanites
and
the
Amlicites
who
had
been
slain
upon
the
bank
of
the
river
Sidon
were
cast
into
the
a
waters
of
Sidon;
and
behold
their
bones
are
in
the
depths
of
the
b
sea,
and
they
are
many.
4 And
the
a
Amlicites
were
distinguished
from
the
Nephites,
for
they
had
b
marked
themselves
with
red
in
their
foreheads
after
the
manner
of
the
Lamanites;
nevertheless
they
had
not
shorn
their
heads
like
unto
the
Lamanites.
5 Now
the
heads
of
the
Lamanites
were
shorn;
and
they
were
a
naked,
save
it
were
skin
which
was
girded
about
their
loins,
and
also
their
armor,
which
was
girded
about
them,
and
their
bows,
and
their
arrows,
and
their
stones,
and
their
slings,
and
so
forth.
6 And
the
skins
of
the
Lamanites
were
dark,
according
to
the
mark
which
was
set
upon
their
fathers,
which
was
a
a
curse
upon
them
because
of
their
transgression
and
their
rebellion
against
their
brethren,
who
consisted
of
Nephi,
Jacob,
and
Joseph,
and
Sam,
who
were
just
and
holy
men.
