Alma 1:84 And behold, as they were crossing the River Sidon, the Lamanites and the Amlicites being as numerous almost as it were as the
sands of the sea, coming upon them to destroy them -
Mormon 1:7 And it came to pass that I, being eleven years old, was carried by my father into the Land Southward, even to the Land of Zarahemla - The whole face of the land having become covered with buildings, And the people were as numerous almost as it were the
sands of the sea.
