Ang Panahon ng Digmaan ng Zarahemla

Paglusob ng Mga Lamanita

Alma 51:22–23

Si Amalikeo at ang kanyang hukbo ay nagtungo sa teritoryo ng mga Nephita, at sinalakay ang lupain ng Moroni.

Behold, it came to pass that while Moroni was thus breaking down the wars and contentions among his own people, and subjecting them to peace and civilization, and making regulations to prepare for war against the Lamanites, behold, the Lamanites had come into the land of Moroni, which was in the borders by the seashore. And it came to pass that the Nephites were not sufficiently strong in the city of Moroni; therefore Amalickiah did drive them, slaying many. And it came to pass that Amalickiah took possession of the city, yea, possession of all their fortifications.

Alma 51:24–25

Ang mga naninirahan sa lupain ng Moroni ay tumakas patungo sa lupain ng Nefihas.

And those who fled out of the city of Moroni came to the city of Nephihah; and also the people of the city of Lehi gathered themselves together, and made preparations and were ready to receive the Lamanites to battle. But it came to pass that Amalickiah would not suffer the Lamanites to go against the city of Nephihah to battle, but kept them down by the seashore, leaving men in every city to maintain and defend it.

Alma 51:26–27

Ang hukbo ni Amalikeo ay sumulong at inangkin ang mga silanganang lupain sa baybayin: Lehi, Morianton, Omner, Gid, Mulek, at maging ang Nefihas.

And thus he went on, taking possession of many cities, the city of Nephihah, and the city of Lehi, and the city of Morianton, and the city of Omner, and the city of Gid, and the city of Mulek, all of which were on the east borders by the seashore.

And thus had the Lamanites obtained, by the cunning of Amalickiah, so many cities, by their numberless hosts, all of which were strongly fortified after the manner of the fortifications of Moroni; all of which afforded strongholds for the Lamanites.

Alma 51:28–31

Ang hukbo ni Amalikias ay nagpatuloy na sumulong pahilaga patungong Masagana, subalit natambangan ni Tiankum at ng kanyang hukbo sa kanilang pagdaan.

And it came to pass that they marched to the borders of the land Bountiful, driving the Nephites before them and slaying many. But it came to pass that they were met by Teancum, who had slain Morianton and had headed his people in his flight. And it came to pass that he headed Amalickiah also, as he was marching forth with his numerous army that he might take possession of the land Bountiful, and also the land northward.

But behold he met with a disappointment by being repulsed by Teancum and his men, for they were great warriors; for every man of Teancum did exceed the Lamanites in their strength and in their skill of war, insomuch that they did gain advantage over the Lamanites.

Alma 51:32

Isang kakila-kilabot na labanan ang kasunod hanggang sa magdilim, na kung saan ang mga tao ni Tiankum ay nagkuta malapit sa Masagana, at ang mga tao ni Amalikeo ay nagkuta sa may dalampasigan.

And it came to pass that they did harass them, insomuch that they did slay them even until it was dark. And it came to pass that Teancum and his men did pitch their tents in the borders of the land Bountiful; and Amalickiah did pitch his tents in the borders on the beach by the seashore, and after this manner were they driven.

Alma 51:33–37

Nang gabing iyon, si Tiancum, na kasama ng kanyang tagapagsilbi, ay pumuslit sa kuta ni Amalikeo, at natagpuan ang tolda ni Amalikeo, pagkatapos ay pinatay si Amalikeo sa pamamagitan ng sibat, at tumakas na hindi napapansin.

And it came to pass that when the night had come, Teancum and his servant stole forth and went out by night, and went into the camp of Amalickiah; and behold, sleep had overpowered them because of their much fatigue, which was caused by the labors and heat of the day.

And it came to pass that Teancum stole privily into the tent of the king, and put a javelin to his heart; and he did cause the death of the king immediately that he did not awake his servants. And he returned again privily to his own camp, and behold, his men were asleep, and he awoke them and told them all the things that he had done.

And he caused that his armies should stand in readiness, lest the Lamanites had awakened and should come upon them. And thus endeth the twenty and fifth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi; and thus endeth the days of Amalickiah.
