Mosiah 5

1 And now, it came to pass that after King Mosiah had had continual peace, for the space of three years, he was desirous to know concerning the people who went up to dwell in the land of Lehi-Nephi, or in the city of Lehi-Nephi:

2 For his people had heard nothing from them, from the time they left the land of Zarahemla; therefore, they wearied him with their teasings.

3 And it came to pass that King Mosiah granted that sixteen of their strong men might go up to the land of Lehi-Nephi, to inquire concerning their brethren.

4 And it came to pass that on the morrow, they started to go up, having with them one Ammon, he being a strong and mighty man, and a descendant of Zarahemla; and he was also their leader.

5 And now, they knew not the course they should travel in the wilderness, to go up to the land of Lehi-Nephi; therefore, they wandered many days in the wilderness, even forty days did they wander.

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

7 And Ammon took three of his brethren, and their names were Amaleki, Helem, and Hem, and they went down into the land of Nephi;

8 And behold, they met the king of the people, who was in the land of Nephi, and in the land of Shilom;

9 And they were surrounded by the king's guard, and were taken, and were bound, and were committed to prison.

10 And it came to pass when they had been in prison two days, they were again brought before the king, and their bands were loosed;

11 And they stood before the king, and were permitted, or rather commanded that they should answer the questions which he should ask them.
