Book of Mormon Helaman 13:28
"ye will clothe him with costly apparel; and because he speaketh flattering words unto you"
Book of Mormon Jacob 2:13
"ye are lifted up in the pride of your hearts, and wear stiff necks and high heads because of the costliness of your apparel"

Shared words: apparel

The costly-apparel apostasy-marker (Jacob 2:13) lands on the FALSE PROPHET'S wardrobe: where the chain elsewhere marks the apostate's own dress (Nehor at Alma 1:6, the church at Alma 4:6, the Zoramites at Alma 31:28), Samuel turns it into a hiring criterion -- the people clothe the flatterer 'with costly apparel' as payment, and 'will not find fault with him' because 'he speaketh flattering words'. New distinct verse-pair (Helaman 13:28 <-> Jacob 2:13), a fifth Jacob-2:13 hub record alongside jac-riches-apparel, jac-riches-despise, mos-noah-pride, alma-riches-nehor-apparel. DISCLOSURE: registered as a NEW Helaman record rather than amending alma-riches-nehor-apparel (Alma 1:6 <-> Jacob 2:13) because the semantic turn is new -- apparel as bribe paid TO a false prophet (flattery chain, cf. mos-flattery-typology), not the apostate's own costliness.
