Pearl of Great Price Abraham 5:7
"the Gods formed man from the dust of the ground, and took his spirit (that is, the man's spirit), and put it into him; and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul"
Old Testament Genesis 2:7
"the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul"

Shared words: and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul

Man formed of dust. Shared near-verbatim frame: 'formed man' — Abraham 'from the dust of the ground,' Genesis 'of the dust of the ground' — then 'breathed into his nostrils the breath of life' and 'man became a living soul' at both ends. Reported differences, not scored: subject 'the Gods' vs 'the LORD God'; 'from' vs 'of' the dust; and an Abraham-only addition with no Genesis counterpart — 'and took his spirit (that is, the man's spirit), and put it into him'. Class (d) same-discourse rendering; origin out of scope; asserted_by wiki.
