Book of Mormon Enos 1:20
"they were continually seeking to destroy us"
Book of Mormon Jacob 7:24
"they sought by the power of their arms to destroy us continually"

Shared words: to destroy us

Near-verbatim continuation: seek/sought + 'to destroy us' + 'continually'. The whole shape of Jacob 7:24 recurs in Enos 1:20: restore-the-Lamanites-vain, then hatred, then destroy-continually. This record and sb-ll-hatred-fixed share the verse-pair (Enos 1:20 <-> Jacob 7:24) by design — two distinct observations on one pair (the seeking-to-destroy language here; the fixed-hatred state there), ratified as the register's one sanctioned pair-share; every other verse-pair is unique. Sibling record: sb-ll-hatred-fixed pairs the SAME two verses on the preceding permanence clause ('hatred was fixed' / 'eternal hatred') -- same verse-pair, different clause, per the jot-tittle same-verse-different-clause precedent; ratified as two distinct observations with mutual disclosure at the 2026-07-10 editorial review.
