Increase of flocks

  1. 13 And he will alove thee, and bless thee, and bmultiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the cfruit of thy land, thy dcorn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
  2. 4 Blessed shall be the afruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy bcattle, the increase of thy kine, and the cflocks of thy sheep.

    18 Cursed shall be the afruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

    51 And he shall aeat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy bland, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy ckine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.
  3. 37 Thus saith the Lord God; I will yet for this be aenquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.
  4. 22 And all this he did, for the sole purpose of abringing this people into subjection or into bondage. And behold, we at this time do pay btribute to the king of the Lamanites, to the amount of one half of our corn, and our barley, and even all our grain of every kind, and one half of the increase of our flocks and our herds; and even one half of all we have or possess the king of the Lamanites doth exact of us, or our lives.
  5. 25 Cry over the flocks of your fields, that they may increase.
  6. 2 Yea, and we may see at the very atime when he doth bprosper his people, yea, in the increase of their fields, their flocks and their herds, and in gold, and in silver, and in all manner of cprecious things of every kind and art; sparing their lives, and delivering them out of the hands of their enemies; softening the hearts of their enemies that they should not declare wars against them; yea, and in fine, doing all things for the welfare and happiness of his people; yea, then is the time that they do dharden their hearts, and do eforget the Lord their God, and do ftrample under their feet the Holy One—yea, and this because of their ease, and their exceedingly great prosperity.
