49 Therefore they did as Ammon commanded them, and he went forth and stood to contend with those who stood by the waters of Sebus;
50 And they were in number not a few; therefore they did not fear Ammon, for they supposed that one of their men could slay him, according to their pleasure, for they knew not that the Lord had promised Mosiah that he would deliver his sons out of their hands; neither did they know anything concerning the Lord;
51 Therefore, they delighted in the destruction of their brethren; and for this cause they stood to scatter the flocks of the king.
52 But Ammon stood forth and began to cast stones at them with his sling; yea, with mighty power he did sling stones amongst them;
53 And thus he slew a certain number of them, insomuch that they began to be astonished at his power;
54 Nevertheless they were angry because of the slain of their brethren, and they were determined that he should fall;
55 Therefore, seeing that they could not hit him with their stones, they came forth with clubs to slay him.
56 But behold, every man that lifted his club to smite Ammon, he smote off their arms with his sword;
57 For he did withstand their blows by smiting their arms with the edge of his sword, insomuch that they began to be astonished, and began to flee before him;
58 Yea, and they were not few in number: and he caused them to flee by the strength of his arm.
59 Now six of them had fallen by the sling, but he slew none save it were their leader, with his sword; and he smote off as many of their arms as were lifted against him, and they were not a few.
