Book of Mormon Omni 1:6
"he would not suffer that the words should not be verified, which he spake unto our fathers, saying that: Inasmuch as ye will not keep my commandments ye shall not prosper in the land."
Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 1:20
"inasmuch as ye will not keep my commandments ye shall be cut off from my presence"

Shared words: Inasmuch as ye will not keep my commandments ye shall

Amaron cites the negative half with the verified framing doubled into a double negative. Divergence reported honestly: the protasis is word-for-word identical, but Amaron's apodosis is 'ye shall not prosper in the land' — the prosper-clause negated — while Lehi's negative half ends 'ye shall be cut off from my presence' (2 Ne 1:20; 4:4). Whether loose citation or a distinct transmitted form, the text does not say.
