Book of Mormon Mosiah 8:13
"he has wherewith that he can look, and translate all records that are of ancient date; and it is a gift from God"
Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 13:35
"these things shall be hid up, to come forth unto the Gentiles, by the gift and power of the Lamb"

Same theology of translation - buried records of a destroyed people made readable by divine gift, not learning - but different referents (the 24 plates in-narrative vs the latter-day coming forth of the Nephite record), and the only shared diction is 'gift.' Neither passage cites the other. Per mos-ammon-gift-retold's note, this 8:13/13:35 seer-doctrine pairing was reserved for this page.
