Alma 24:61 And now it came to pass that the armies of the Lamanites on the West Sea South - while in the absence of Moroni on account of some
intrigue amongst the Nephites, which caused dissensions amongst them - had gained some ground over the Nephites, Yea, insomuch that they had obtained possession of a number of their cities in that part of the land;
Alma 24:62 And thus because of iniquity amongst themselves, yea, because of dissensions and
intrigue among themselves, they were placed in the most dangerous circumstances.
