2 And it came to pass that the Amalekites, because of their loss, were exceeding angry;

3 And when they saw that they could not seek revenge from the Nephites, they began to stir up the people in anger against their brethren, the people of Anti-Nephi-Lehi; Therefore, they began again to destroy them.

4 Now this people again refused to take their arms, And they suffered themselves to be slain according to the desires of their enemy.

5 Now when Ammon and his brethren saw this work of destruction among those who they so dearly beloved and among those who had so dearly beloved them - for they were treated as though they were angels sent from God to save them from everlasting destruction -

6 Therefore, when Ammon and his brethren saw this great work of destruction, they were moved with compassion and they said unto the king: "Let us gather together this people of the Lord, And let us go down to the Land of Zarahemla to our brethren the Nephites and flee out of the hands of our enemies, that we be not destroyed."

7 But the king saith unto them: "Behold, the Nephites will destroy us because of the many murders and sins we have committed against them."

8 And Ammon saith: "I will go and inquire of the Lord; And if He saith unto us, 'Go down unto our brethren, ' will ye go?"

9 And the king saith unto him: "Yea, if the Lord saith unto us, 'Go, ' we will go down unto our brethren, And we will be their slaves until we repair unto them the many murders and sins which we have committed against them."

10 But Ammon saith unto him: "It is against the law of our brethren, which was established by my father, that there should be any slaves among them; Therefore, let us go down and rely upon the mercies of our brethren."

11 But the king saith unto him: "Inquire of the Lord and if He saith unto us, 'Go, ' we will go; Otherwise, we will perish in the land."

12 And it came to pass that Ammon went and inquired of the Lord and the Lord said unto him: "Get this people out of this land, that they perish not, For Satan hath great hold on the hearts of the Amalekites which do stir up the Lamanites to anger against their brethren to slay them, Therefore, get thee out of this land; And blessed art this people in this generation, for I will preserve them."
