Book of Mormon Mosiah 4:6
"the atonement which has been prepared from the foundation of the world"
Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 10:18
"the way is prepared for all men from the foundation of the world"

Shared words: from the foundation of the world

Distribution of 'prepared…from the foundation of the world': 1 Nephi 10:18 (the way, for all men); 2 Nephi 9:18 (the kingdom, for the saints); Mosiah 4:6 + 4:7 (the atonement - 4:7 adds 'for all mankind', tightening the match to 10:18); 15:19 (the redemption, Abinadi); 18:13 (the redemption of Christ, Alma's baptismal wording); Alma 12:30, 13:3, 13:5, 13:7, 18:39, 22:13, 42:26 (the Alma foreordination cluster and mission narratives); Ether 3:14 (Christ's premortal self-identification, 'prepared from the foundation of the world to redeem my people'); and Ether 4:19 (the kingdom 'prepared for him from the foundation of the world' — the 2 Nephi 9:18 kingdom-class). 2 Nephi 27:10 has 'from the foundation of the world' without 'prepared'; 3 Nephi 1:14 has 'made known' with it, not 'prepared'. 1 Nephi 10:18 judged closest far end: prepared thing = the saving provision, scope universal, in both. Corpus disclosure: the New Testament carries the same phrasing at Matthew 25:34 ('the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world'), a kingdom-class instance like 2 Nephi 9:18 / Ether 4:19.
