Pearl of Great Price Moses 5:47
"Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech; for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt."
Old Testament Genesis 4:23
"Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt."

Shared words: Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech; for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt

Lamech's boast to his wives, near-verbatim: the hear-my-voice opening, then 'ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech' and 'for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt' at both ends. Divergences are punctuation only in the quoted run. (Both verses also share the address 'Adah and Zillah' just before this run.)
