36 But behold, it came to pass that in that same year, they were driven back even into their own lands.
37 And thus ended the eightieth year of the reign of the Judges over the people of Nephi.
38 And it came to pass in the commencement of the eighty and first year, they did go forth again against this band of robbers, and did destroy many;
39 And they were also visited with much destruction; and they were again obliged to return out of the wilderness and out of the mountains, unto their own lands, because of the exceeding greatness of the numbers of those robbers who infested the mountains and the wilderness.
40 And it came to pass that thus ended this year. And the robbers did still increase and wax strong, insomuch that they did defy the whole armies of the Nephites, and also of the Lamanites; and they did cause great fear to come unto the people, upon all the face of the land;
41 Yea, for they did visit many parts of the land, and did do great destruction unto them; yea, did kill many, and did carry away others captive into the wilderness; yea, and more especially their women and their children.
42 Now this great evil, which came unto the people because of their iniquity did stir them up again in remembrance of the Lord their God.
43 And thus ended the eighty and first year of the reign of the Judges.
44 And in the eighty and second year, they began again to forget the Lord their God.
45 And in the eighty and third year, they began to wax strong in iniquity.
46 And in the eighty and fourth year, they did not mend their ways.
