Book of Mormon Jarom 1:9

Book of Mormon Alma 37:13
"If ye will keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land"

Shared words: ye will keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land

Jarom cites the promise as spoken "unto our fathers"; some three centuries later Alma repeats it to Helaman word-for-word after the opening conjunction, as he hands over the records. Alma's verse continues with the cutting-off warning in its "cut off from his presence" form. The promise's shared close — keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land, matched with punctuation normalized — stands at five verses of the record: 2 Nephi 1:20, 2 Nephi 4:4, Jarom 1:9, Alma 9:13, Alma 37:13 (the conditionals opening it vary); the register's 2ne-cov-prosper-internal and alma-prosper-9-13 carry the Lehi-line legs, and this record adds the Jarom attestation.
