21  And it came to pass that the people of Nephi did till the land, and raise all manner of grain, and of fruit, and ^bflocks of herds, and flocks of all manner of cattle of every kind, and goats, and wild goats, and also many horses.

  15  And I did teach my people to build buildings, and to work in all manner of wood, and of ^diron, and of copper, and of brass, and of steel, and of gold, and of silver, and of precious ores, which were in great abundance.

  16  And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.

  12  And now behold, my brethren, this is the word which I declare unto you, that many of you have begun to search for gold, and for silver, and for all manner of precious ^aores, in the which this land, which is a land of promise unto you and to your seed, doth abound most plentifully.

  9  And it came to pass that they became exceedingly rich, both the Lamanites and the Nephites; and they did have an exceeding plenty of ^agold, and of silver, and of all manner of precious metals, both in the land south and in the land north.

  2  But behold, there were no wild beasts nor ^agame in those lands which had been deserted by the Nephites, and there was no game for the robbers save it were in the wilderness.

  20  And it came to pass that the ^awild game became scarce in the wilderness insomuch that the robbers were about to perish with hunger.

  19  And they also had ^ahorses, and asses, and there were elephants and cureloms and cumoms; all of which were useful unto man, and more especially the elephants and cureloms and cumoms.
