Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 9:26
"they are delivered from that awful monster, death and hell, and the devil, and the lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment"
New Testament Revelation 20:14
"And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death."

Shared words: the lake of fire

Both verses set the same three terms in one sentence: death, hell, and the lake of fire. 'lake of fire and brimstone' stands at exactly eleven verses in the corpus (recounted 2026-08-10 at the D&C freeze) — 2 Nephi 9:16, 9:19, 9:26, 28:23, Jacob 3:11, 6:10, Mosiah 3:27, Alma 12:17, 14:14, Revelation 20:10, and D&C 76:36 — nine Book of Mormon, one Revelation and one Doctrine and Covenants, and nowhere else in the Bible. Widening to 'lake of fire' in any form adds only Revelation 19:20, 20:14, 20:15; the image reaches three works in the corpus, the Book of Mormon, Revelation and the Doctrine and Covenants, so the two-work confinement this record reported no longer holds. Variants reported, not scored: in Jacob's sentence the saints are delivered FROM the lake, in Revelation death and hell are cast INTO it; Jacob glosses it 'which is endless torment', Revelation glosses it 'This is the second death.' The corpus gives no account of the parallel; origin outside this wiki's scope. Class (c). asserted_by wiki. (Distinct from the existing intra-corpus record 2ne-atone-monster, which pairs 2 Nephi 9:26 with 2 Nephi 28:23.)
