Book of Mormon Omni 1:26
"offer your whole souls as an offering unto him"
Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 25:29
"worship him with all your might, mind, and strength, and your whole soul"

Shared words: your whole

Double match: 'whole soul' / 'whole souls' recurs at seven verses in the record (2 Nephi 25:29, Enos 1:9, WoM 1:18, Omni 1:26, Mosiah 2:20, 2:21, 26:14; no Ether hit), with an eighth corpus occurrence at Jeremiah 32:41 ('with my whole heart and with my whole soul'). But the explicit identification of Christ as the Holy One of Israel occurs at EXACTLY these two verses, and both join it to total-soul devotion.
