92 For behold, Ammoron had sent to their support a new supply of provisions, and also a numerous army of men.
93 And it came to pass that those men whom we sent with the prisoners, did arrive in season to check them, as they were about to overpower us.
94 But behold, my little band of two thousand and sixty, fought most desperately; yea, they were firm before the Lamanites, and did administer death unto all those who opposed them;
95 And as the remainder of our army were about to give way before the Lamanites, behold, those two thousand and sixty were firm and undaunted; yea, and they did obey and observe to perform every word of command with exactness;
96 Yea, and even according to their faith, it was done unto them; and I did remember the words which they said unto me that their mothers had taught them.
97 And now behold, it was these, my sons, and those men who had been selected to convey the prisoners, to whom we owe this great victory; for it was they who did beat the Lamanites; therefore they were driven back to the city of Manti.
98 And we retained our city Cumeni, and were not all destroyed by the sword; nevertheless, we had suffered great loss.
99 And it came to pass that after the Lamanites had fled, I immediately gave orders that my men who had been wounded should be taken from among the dead, and caused that their wounds should be dressed.
100 And it came to pass that there were two hundred, out of my two thousand and sixty, who had fainted because of the loss of blood;
101 Nevertheless, according to the goodness of God, and to our great astonishment, and also the joy of our whole army, there was not one soul of them who did perish; yea, and neither was there one soul among them who had not received many wounds.
102 And now, their preservation was astonishing to our whole army; yea, that they should be spared, while there was a thousand of our brethren who were slain.
