Book of Mormon Mormon 9:14
"he that is filthy shall be filthy still; and he that is righteous shall be righteous still; he that is happy shall be happy still; and he that is unhappy shall be unhappy still"
New Testament Revelation 22:11
"and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still"

Shared words: be filthy still; and he that is righteous

Moroni's rendering of the fixed-state saying stands closer to Revelation's construction than Jacob's does: both use the same he-that-is … still frame, and both order filthy before righteous. Variants reported, not scored: Revelation reads 'he which is filthy' where Mormon 9:14 reads 'he that is filthy'; Revelation's verbs are jussive ('let him be'), Moroni's predictive ('shall be'); Revelation's four terms are unjust, filthy, righteous, holy, and Moroni's four are filthy, righteous, happy, unhappy — the happy/unhappy pair has no counterpart anywhere in the corpus. Distribution as in rev-w1-08, recounted 2026-08-10 at the D&C freeze: 'righteous still' at three verses only; 'filthy still' at five, those three plus D&C 88:35 and 88:102, the latter inside a judgment-trump passage in the same fixed-state register. The happy/unhappy pair remains without counterpart anywhere in the corpus. The corpus gives no account of the parallel; origin outside this wiki's scope. Class (c). asserted_by wiki.
