The King James Version it occurs 120 times - starting with Genesis chapter 4, verse 14.
However the New American Standard Bible does not contain the phrase at all, although Isiahah 7:7 says: thus says the Lord GOD 'It shall not stand or shall not come to pass'.

'And it came to Pass' - occurs in the English translation of the Book of Mormon 1,381 times. It is found in all books except Moroni. Sometimes the phrase is recorded 'Now it came to Pass' or 'For Behold it came to pass' or 'But Behold, it came to pass'. or 'and it shall come to pass.'
The phrase is not unique to the Book of Mormon, the Bible utilizes the phrase or one of its derivatives, 526 times in the Old Testament and 87 times in the New Testament. This supports the fact that this phrase 'and it came to pass' is Hebrew in origin and correlates with Nephi's statement, 'Yea, I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians.'
This depends very much on which version or translation you use.
