That moment when you have just received encouraging news, and after a lot of hardship things are starting to look up finally, and then disaster strikes again and you begin to doubt if you'll ever come out on top. That's what happened to Moroni and his men in this chapter. It seems like sometimes experiencing frustration, frustration, frustration, frustration, frustration, frustration, little bit of encouragement, and then a whole lot more frustration, frustration, frustration, frustration, can be worse then just suffering all the frustration and not having that bit of relief.
This is a very bad thing:
11 And now, when Moroni saw that the city of Nephihah was lost he was exceedingly sorrowful, and began to doubt, because of the wickedness of the people, whether they should not fall into the hands of their brethren.
12 Now this was the case with all his chief captains. They doubted and marveled also because of the wickedness of the people, and this because of the success of the Lamanites over them.
This is not a good state to be in.
