Book of Mormon Alma 12:36
"therefore your iniquity provoketh him that he sendeth down his wrath upon you as in the first provocation"
Book of Mormon Jacob 1:7
"lest by any means he should swear in his wrath they should not enter in, as in the provocation in the days of temptation while the children of Israel were in the wilderness"

Shared words: his wrath

Provocation + swear-in-wrath + enter-into-rest at both ends (Alma 12:35 carries 'I swear in my wrath that he shall not enter into my rest'). Jacob names the wilderness provocation; Alma counts provocations (first/last) and extends rest-language through Alma 13:6-29. Previously an open-uncertainty entry (Psalm 95 echo); the pair is now internal, and Psalm 95 stays as background.
