Kib hat einen Sohn, Corihor, der sich gegen Kib auflehnt, den Jarediten-Verband verlässt und sich mit seinen Anhängern in einem Land namens Nehor, Land und Stadt niederlässt.

And Kib begat Corihor. 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.

Corihor versammelt eine Armee in Nehor, und greift Kibs Königreich an, welches sich an einem Ort namens Moron befindet; Kib wird besiegt.

And when he had gathered together an army he came up unto the land of Moron where the king dwelt, and took him captive, which brought to pass the saying of the brother of Jared that they would be brought into captivity. Now the land of Moron, where the king dwelt, was near the land which is called Desolation by the Nephites.

Ether 7:7

Kib lebt in Gefangenschaft unter der Herrschaft seines Sohnes Corihor; während seiner Gefangenschaft bekommt er einen Sohn, den er Shule nennt.

And it came to pass that Kib dwelt in 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.

Shule ist wütend auf seinen Bruder Corihor; er fertigt Schwerter auf einem Hügel namens Ephraim, versammelt Anhänger und kämpft erfolgreich gegen Corihor in Nehor, Land und Stadt, und stellt das Königreich Kib wieder her.

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. Wherefore, he came to the hill Ephraim, and he did molten out of the hill, and made swords out of 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.
