D&C 103: 24. 24 And inasmuch as mine enemies come against you to drive you from my goodly ^aland, which I have consecrated to be the land of Zion, even from your own lands after these testimonies, which ye have brought before me against them, ye shall curse them;

c	Ps. 135: 4. 4 For the Lord hath chosen ^aJacob unto himself, and Israel for his ^bpeculiar ^ctreasure. 3 Ne. 5: 21 (21-26). 21 Surely he hath ^ablessed the house of ^bJacob, and hath been ^cmerciful unto the seed of Joseph.
