21  And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the ^atower of Edar.

  7  For the multitude being so great that king Benjamin could not teach them all within the walls of the temple, therefore he caused a ^atower to be erected, that thereby his people might hear the words which he should speak unto them.

  5  And it came to pass that he fought with the king; and when the king saw that he was about to overpower him, he fled and ran and got upon the ^atower which was near the temple.

  14  For, in the thirteenth year of my reign in the land of Nephi, away on the south of the land of ^aShilom, when my people were watering and feeding their flocks, and tilling their lands, a numerous host of Lamanites came upon them and began to slay them, and to take off their flocks, and the corn of their fields.

  11  And it came to pass that the people of king Limhi did depart by night into the wilderness with their flocks and their herds, and they went round about the land of ^bShilom in the wilderness, and bent their course towards the land of Zarahemla, being led by Ammon and his brethren.

  7  But I had sent my spies out round about the land of ^aShemlon, that I might discover their preparations, that I might guard against them, that they might not come upon my people and destroy them.

  5  And when they had wandered forty days they came to a hill, which is north of the land of ^bShilom, and there they pitched their tents.

  6  And Gideon pursued after him and was about to get upon the tower to slay the king, and the king cast his eyes round about towards the land of ^aShemlon, and behold, the army of the Lamanites were within the borders of the land.

  8  And now Limhi had discovered them from the ^atower, even all their preparations for war did he discover; therefore he gathered his people together, and laid wait for them in the fields and in the forests.
