- A few years pass, and the Gadianton robbers appoint a new leader, Zemnarihah, who leads his people to the Nephites, surrounds their city, and plans to cut them off from all outside resources.
- The plan backfires, because the Nephites have large amounts of food and resources stocked up, whereas the Gadianton robbers did not have any resources available to them outside the city limits.
- The Nephites also periodically dispatched troops to eliminate Gadianton robbers—seeing his efforts are futile, Zemnarihah orders a withdrawal, and he begins to lead his people to the land northward.
- Gidgiddoni plans an ambush, and the next day, Zemnarihah is met in the front and rear by Nephite troops.
- The Gadianton robbers surrender, Zemnarihah is executed, and the righteous pray for protection and grace.
- The Nephites again pray for protection.
- The Nephites break into song, and praise God for his providence.
- The Nephites all believe in the prophesies, have faith in Christ, repent, and live righteously.
- The Nephites preach the gospel to their Gadianton prisoners; those who believe and repent are set free.
- Many marvelous things occur, and cannot all be included in this account.
