22 And notwithstanding, I, being young, was large in stature, Therefore, the people of Nephi appointed me that I should be their leader, or the leader of their armies.

23 Therefore, it came to pass that in my sixteenth year I did go forth at the head of an army of the Nephites against the Lamanites; Therefore, three hundred and twenty and six years had passed away.

24 And it came to pass that in the three hundred and twenty and seventh year, the Lamanites did come upon us with exceeding great power, insomuch that they did frighten my armies; Therefore, they would not fight, And they began to retreat toward the North Countries.

25 And it came to pass that we did come to the City of Angolah, And we did take possession of the city and make preparations to defend ourselves against the Lamanites.

26 And it came to pass that we did fortify the city with our mights; But notwithstanding all our fortifications, the Lamanites did come upon us and did drive us out of the city,

27 And they did also drive us forth out of the Land of David; And we marched forth and came to the Land of Joshua, which was in the borders west by the seashore.

28 And it came to pass that we did gather in our people as fast as it were possible, that we might get them together in one body.

29 But behold, the land was filled with robbers and with Lamanites; And notwithstanding the great destruction which hung over my people, they did not repent of their evil doings;

30 Therefore, there was blood and carnage spread throughout all the face of the land - Both on the part of the Nephites, and also on the part of the Lamanites; And it was one complete revolution throughout all the face of the land.

31 And now the Lamanites had a king and his name was Aaron, And he came against us with an army of forty and four thousand;

32 And behold, I withstood him with forty and two thousand; And it came to pass that I beat him with my army that he fled before me.
