40 And Moroni commanded his men that they should fall upon them until they had given up their weapons of war.

41 And it came to pass that Jacob being their leader, being also a Zoramite and having an unconquerable spirit, He led the Lamanites forth to battle with exceeding fury against Moroni -

42 Moroni being in their course of march - Therefore, Jacob was determined to slay them and cut his way through to the City of Mulek;

43 But behold, Moroni and his men were more powerful, Therefore, they did not give way before the Lamanites.

44 And it came to pass that they fought on both hands with exceeding fury; And there were many slain on both sides, Yea, and Moroni was wounded and Jacob was killed;

45 And Lehi pressed upon their rear with such fury with his strong men that the Lamanites in the rear delivered up their weapons of war, And the remainder of them, being much confused, knew not whether to go or to strike.

46 Now Moroni seeing their confusion, he said unto them: "If ye will bring forth your weapons of war and deliver them up, Behold, we will forbear shedding your blood."

47 And it came to pass that when the Lamanites had heard these words, Their chief captains - all those which were not slain - came forth and threw down their weapons of war at the feet of Moroni, And also commanded their men that they should do the same.

48 But behold, there were many that would not; And those who would not deliver up their swords were taken and bound and their weapons of war were taken from them, And they were compelled to march with their brethren forth into the Land Bountiful;

49 And now the number of prisoners which were taken exceeded more than the number of those which had been slain, yea, more than those which had been slain on both sides.

50 And it came to pass that they did set guards over the prisoners of the Lamanites, And did compel them to go forth and bury their dead, yea, and also the dead of the Nephites which were slain; And Moroni placed men over them to guard them while they should perform their labors.
