Book of Mormon: More Interesting Constructions in Helaman, Joshua

**I found one more in the Book of Mormon, in the Book of Helaman, talking about "famine" and "smitten":

Helaman 11:5
And so it was done, according to the words of Nephi. And there was a great famine upon the land, among all the people of Nephi. And thus in the seventy and fourth year the famine did continue, and the work of destruction did cease by the sword but became sore by famine.

Helaman 11:6
And this work of destruction did also continue in the seventy and fifth year. For the earth was smitten that it was dry, and did not yield forth grain in the season of grain; and the whole earth was smitten, even among the Lamanites as well as among the Nephites, so that they were smitten that they did perish by thousands in the more wicked parts of the land.



**I also found one in the Bible:

Joshua 1:6,7,9--the "be strong and of a good courage" part.
