Ether 7
Orihah reigns in righteousness—Amid usurpation and strife, the rival kingdoms of Shule and Cohor are set up—Prophets condemn the wickedness and idolatry of the people, who then repent.
And
it
came
to
pass
that
Orihah
did
execute
judgment
upon
the
land
in
righteousness
all
his
days,
whose
days
were
exceedingly
many.
2 And
he
begat
sons
and
daughters;
yea,
he
begat
thirty
and
one,
among
whom
were
twenty
and
three
sons.
3 And
it
came
to
pass
that
he
also
begat
a
Kib
in
his
b
old
age.
And
it
came
to
pass
that
Kib
reigned
in
his
stead;
and
Kib
begat
Corihor.
4 And
when
Corihor
was
thirty
and
two
years
old
he
rebelled
against
his
father,
and
went
over
and
dwelt
in
the
land
of
Nehor;
and
he
begat
sons
and
daughters,
and
they
became
exceedingly
fair;
wherefore
Corihor
drew
away
many
people
after
him.
5 And
when
he
had
gathered
together
an
army
he
came
up
unto
the
land
of
a
Moron
where
the
king
dwelt,
and
took
him
captive,
which
b
brought
to
pass
the
saying
of
the
brother
of
Jared
that
they
would
be
brought
into
captivity.
6 Now
the
a
land
of
Moron,
where
the
king
dwelt,
was
near
the
land
which
is
called
Desolation
by
the
Nephites.
7 And
it
came
to
pass
that
Kib
dwelt
in
a
captivity,
and
his
people
under
Corihor
his
son,
until
he
became
exceedingly
old;
nevertheless
Kib
begat
Shule
in
his
old
age,
while
he
was
yet
in
captivity.
8 And
it
came
to
pass
that
Shule
was
angry
with
his
brother;
and
Shule
waxed
strong,
and
became
mighty
as
to
the
strength
of
a
man;
and
he
was
also
mighty
in
judgment.
9 Wherefore,
he
came
to
the
hill
Ephraim,
and
he
did
molten
out
of
the
hill,
and
made
swords
out
of
a
steel
for
those
whom
he
had
drawn
away
with
him;
and
after
he
had
armed
them
with
swords
he
returned
to
the
city
Nehor,
and
gave
battle
unto
his
brother
Corihor,
by
which
means
he
obtained
the
kingdom
and
restored
it
unto
his
father
Kib.
10 And
now
because
of
the
thing
which
Shule
had
done,
his
father
bestowed
upon
him
the
kingdom;
therefore
he
began
to
reign
in
the
stead
of
his
father.
11 And
it
came
to
pass
that
he
did
execute
judgment
in
righteousness;
and
he
did
spread
his
kingdom
upon
all
the
face
of
the
land,
for
the
people
had
become
exceedingly
numerous.
12 And
it
came
to
pass
that
Shule
also
begat
many
sons
and
daughters.
13 And
Corihor
repented
of
the
many
evils
which
he
had
done;
wherefore
Shule
gave
him
power
in
his
kingdom.
14 And
it
came
to
pass
that
Corihor
had
many
sons
and
daughters.
And
among
the
sons
of
Corihor
there
was
one
whose
name
was
Noah.
15 And
it
came
to
pass
that
Noah
rebelled
against
Shule,
the
king,
and
also
his
father
Corihor,
and
drew
away
Cohor
his
brother,
and
also
all
his
brethren
and
many
of
the
people.
16 And
he
gave
battle
unto
Shule,
the
king,
in
which
he
did
obtain
the
land
of
their
a
first
inheritance;
and
he
became
a
king
over
that
part
of
the
land.
