Book of Mormon 3 Nephi 14:7
"Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you."
New Testament Matthew 7:7
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:"

Shared words: you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you

The ask-seek-knock triplet, near-verbatim: the only difference is 'given unto you' (3 Nephi 14:7) for 'given you' (Matthew 7:7). The following verse (3 Nephi 14:8 = Matthew 7:8, 'For every one that asketh receiveth …') is word-for-word apart from punctuation.
