Book of Mormon Jarom 1:9
"Inasmuch as ye will keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land"
Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 1:20
"Inasmuch as ye shall keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land"

Shared words: keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land

Jarom's citation measured against Lehi's deathbed form is exact but for one word ('will'/'shall') — near-verbatim. Shows the small books quote the formula in Lehi's transmitted wording ('prosper in the land'), not the Lord's original wording to Nephi (1 Ne 2:20).
