Book of Mormon 3 Nephi 16:18
"Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing, for they shall see eye to eye when the Lord shall bring again Zion"
Old Testament Isaiah 52:8
"Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion"

Shared words: Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing, for they shall see eye to eye when the Lord shall bring again Zion

Isaiah 52:8 - the watchmen / 'eye to eye' / 'bring again Zion' verse - now spoken by the risen Lord (16:17 frames it: 'And then the words of the prophet Isaiah shall be fulfilled'). Third mouth for this verse in the corpus: Noah's priests brandished it as a challenge (Mosiah 12:22, mos-isa-priests-52-8), Abinadi carried it through his exposition (Mosiah 15:29, mos-isa-requote-52-8), and Christ now speaks it as the gathering's signature. Near-verbatim vs KJV: 'sing, for' (comma) where KJV has 'sing:' (colon) and Mosiah 12:22 a semicolon; 'eye to eye when' drops the KJV comma; 'Lord' for 'LORD'. Re-run Father-glossed at 20:32 ('their watchmen… their voice'). Part of the 16:18-20 block = Isaiah 52:8-10.
