Mosiah 20:25

And it came to pass that they followed the king, and went forth without arms to meet the Lamanites. And it came to pass that they did meet the Lamanites; and the king of the Lamanites did bow himself down before them, and did plead in behalf of the people of Limhi.

They followed the king. They went without weapons to meet the Lamanites. They met the Lamanites. The king of the Lamanites bowed down before them. He begged his people to have mercy on Limhi’s people.

So they followed the king and went out unarmed to meet the approaching Lamanite army. When they met, the Lamanite king bowed down before his own people and pleaded for mercy on behalf of Limhi’s people.
