Book of Mormon Jacob 6:11
"repent ye, and enter in at the strait gate, and continue in the way which is narrow, until ye shall obtain eternal life"
Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 33:9
"enter into the narrow gate, and walk in the strait path which leads to life, and continue in the path until the end of the day of probation"

Shared words: and continue in the

2 Nephi 33:9 is the verbally closest end: it alone shares the imperative — 'enter in at the strait gate' (Jacob 6:11) / 'enter into the narrow gate' (33:9) — plus the continue-until frame ('continue in the way', Jacob 6:11; 'continue in the path until', 33:9). Textual fact — the adjectives swap: Jacob 6:11 has a STRAIT gate and a way which is NARROW; 33:9 has a NARROW gate and a STRAIT path; 2 Nephi 31:18 puts both adjectives on the path.
