Book of Mormon Mosiah 11:5
"consecrated new ones in their stead, such as were lifted up in the pride of their hearts"
Book of Mormon Jacob 2:13
"ye are lifted up in the pride of your hearts"

The exact formula recurs within Mosiah 11 itself (11:19, the people's war-pride, no riches context), showing the narrator's productive idiom rather than a pointed echo - tier-2 distinctiveness fails. The surviving claim is the context parallel: both Jacob 2:13 and Mosiah 11:5-6 attach the formula to riches-driven pride (costly apparel from riches; priests funded by the fifth-part tax). Distribution: exact 'lifted up in the pride of their hearts' at Mosiah 11:5, 11:19; Alma 6:3; 3 Nephi 16:10; Mormon 8:28; 'his heart' at Alma 1:6; 'your hearts' at Jacob 2:13 and Alma 7:6. Near-variants include 'pride of their eyes' (2 Nephi 26:20; also Alma 4:6, 4:8, 62:49) and 'puffed up in the pride' (2 Nephi 28:15; Alma 5:53).
