60 And it came to pass that the voice of the people came against Amlici, that he was not made king over the people.
61 Now this did cause much joy in the hearts of those who were against him; but Amlici did stir up those who were in his favor, to anger against those who were not in his favor.
62 And it came to pass that they gathered themselves together, and did consecrate Amlici to be their king.
63 Now when Amlici was made king over them, he commanded them that they should take up arms against their brethren; and this he did, that he might subject them to him.
64 Now the people of Amlici were distinguished by the name of Amlici, being called Amlicites; and the remainder were called Nephites, or the people of God:
65 Therefore the people of the Nephites were aware of the intent of the Amlicites, and therefore they did prepare to meet them;
66 Yea, they did arm themselves with swords, and with cimeters, and with bows, and with arrows, and with stones, and with slings, and with all manner of weapons of war, of every kind;
67 And thus they were prepared to meet the Amlicites at the time of their coming.
68 And there were appointed captains, and higher captains, and chief captains, according to their numbers.
69 And it came to pass that Amlici did arm his men with all manner of weapons of war, of every kind; and he also appointed rulers and leaders over his people, to lead them to war against their brethren.
70 And it came to pass that the Amlicites came upon the hill of Amnihu, which was east of the river Sidon, which ran by the land of Zarahemla, and there they began to make war with the Nephites.
