Alma 58:5

But behold, this did not profit us but little: for the Lamanites were also receiving great strength, from day to day, and also many provisions; and thus were our circumstances at this period of time.

But this did not help us much. The Lamanites were also getting more soldiers every day. They were also getting a lot of food. This is how things were for us at this time.

But this didn’t help much. The Lamanites were also getting stronger every day, and their supply lines kept flowing. That’s where things stood.
