50 And he did cause that they should labor continually for their support, And whoso refused to labor, he did cause to be put to death; Wherefore, he did obtain all his fine work, Yea, even his fine gold he did cause to be refined in prison, And all manner of fine workmanship he did cause to be wrought in prison.

51 And it came to pass that he did afflict the people with his whoredoms and abominations; And when he had reigned for the space of forty and two years, the people raised up in rebellion against him, And there began to be war again in the land, insomuch that Riplakish was killed and his descendants were driven out of the land.

52 And it came to pass that after the space of many years, Morianton - he being a descendant of Riplakish - gathered together an army of outcasts and went forth and gave battle unto the people; And he gained power over many cities;

53 And the war became exceeding sore and did last for the space of many years, And he did gain power over all the land and did establish himself king over all the land;

58 And it came to pass that Kim did not reign in righteousness, Wherefore, he was not favored of the Lord;

59 And his brother did raise up in rebellion against him, in the which he did bring him into captivity; And he did remain in captivity all his days, And he begat sons and daughters in captivity, And in his old age he begat Levi and he died.

60 And it came to pass that Levi did serve in captivity after the death of his father for the space of forty and two years;
