41 And it came to pass that we did go up to battle against the Lamanites.

42 And I, even I, in my old age, did go up to battle against the Lamanites.

43 And it came to pass that we did go up in the strength of the Lord, to battle.

44 Now, the Lamanites knew nothing concerning the Lord, nor the strength of the Lord; therefore they depended upon their own strength.

45 Yet they were a strong people, as to the strength of men; they were a wild, and ferocious, and a bloodthirsty people, believing in the tradition of their fathers, which is this:

46 Believing that they were driven out of the land of Jerusalem, because of the iniquities of their fathers, and that they were wronged in the wilderness by their brethren; and they were also wronged, while crossing the sea.

47 And again: that they were wronged while in the land of their first inheritance, after they had crossed the sea;

48 And all this, because that Nephi was more faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord; therefore he was favored of the Lord, for the Lord heard his prayers and answered them, and he took the lead of their journey in the wilderness.

49 And his brethren were wroth with him, because they understood not the dealings of the Lord;

50 They were also wroth with him upon the waters, because they hardened their hearts against the Lord.

51 And again: they were wroth with him when they had arrived to the promised land, because they said that he had taken the ruling of the people out of their hands; and they sought to kill him.
