Mosiah 20:11
1830 Edition
And it came to pass that the people of Limhi began to drive the Lamanites before them, yet they were not half so numerous as the Lamanites. But they fought for their lives, and for their wives, and for their children; therefore they exerted themselves, and like dragons did they fight.
Changes
And it came to pass that the people of Limhi began to drive the Lamanites before them,; yet they were not half so numerous as the Lamanites. But they fought for their lives, and for their wives, and for their children; therefore they exerted themselves, and like dragons did they fight.
Simple English
Limhi’s people began to push the Lamanites back. There were only half as many of them as the Lamanites. But they fought for their lives, their wives, and their children. They gave everything they had. They fought like dragons.
Paraphrase
Limhi’s people began pushing the Lamanites back, even though they were outnumbered two to one. But they were fighting for their lives, their wives, their children—so they fought with everything they had. They fought like dragons.
