Why did god want the nepites and lamenites in the Americas?

The Nephites, Lamanites, and Jaredites were brought to the Americas by the hand of God for many reasons, but mostly so to preserve the religion and word of God. If they were never lead to the Promised Land, we would have only the Bible to testify of Jesus Christ, and the Bible has had many 'plain and precious' truths removed from it over the years.

How many years between Promised Land and King David?

The question as written makes no sense. The Promised Land is a place, not an event. David was King of the United Kingdom of Israel which was in the Promised Land. If the question is asking, according to the Bible, how many years passed between the arrival in the Promised Land and David's ascension to the throne, that period is considered to be roughly 400 years. Historically, it is assumed to be a little less (roughly 200-300 years) assuming that the events of the Bible are Historical.
