Book of Mormon Mosiah 28:15
"they have been kept and preserved by the hand of the Lord, that he should discover to every creature who should possess the land"
Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 19:3
"the things which were written should be kept for the instruction of my people, who should possess the land"

Shared words: who should possess the land

The clause 'who should possess the land' occurs at exactly these two verses (other 'possess the land' hits lack 'who should'), both in purpose-statements for preserved records/instruments ('kept'). Purposes diverge - instruction of one's own people vs disclosure of a destroyed people's iniquities to successors - stated as fact.
