They said, the hill country is not enough for us, and the Canaanites in the lowlands around Bethshan and the valley of Jezreel have iron chariots – they are too strong for us. Then Joshua said to the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, the descendants of Joseph, since you are so large and strong, you will be given more than one portion. The forests of the hill country will be yours as well. Clear as much of the land as you wish and live there. And I am sure you can drive out the Canaanites from the valleys, too even though they are strong and have iron chariots. Joshua Chapter 17 verses 16 to 18, NLT.
Now Jacob took for himself rods of green poplar and of the
almond and chestnut trees, peeled white strips in them, and exposed the white
which was in the rods. And the rods which he had peeled, he set before the
flocks in the gutters, in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink,
so that they should conceive when they came to drink. So the flocks conceived
before the rods, and the flocks brought forth streaked, speckled, and spotted.
Then Jacob separated the lambs, and made the flocks face toward the streaked
and all the brown in the flock of Laban; but he put his own flocks by
themselves and did not put them with Laban's flock. And it came to pass,
whenever the stronger livestock conceived, that Jacob placed the rods before
the eyes of the livestock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the
rods. But when the flocks were feeble,
he did not put them in; so the feebler were Laban's and the stronger Jacob's.
Thus the man became exceedingly prosperous, and had large flocks, female and
male servants, and camels and donkeys.

Of course not! Though everyone else in the world is a liar,
God is not. Do you remember what the book of Psalms says about this? That God's
