Doctrine and Covenants D&C 10:59
"I am he who said—Other sheep have I which are not of this fold—unto my disciples, and many there were that understood me not."
New Testament John 10:16
"And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd."

Shared words: which are not of this fold

One divergence in the shared clause: the revelation inverts subject and verb, 'Other sheep have I' for 'other sheep I have'. The revelation supplies an audience the Johannine verse does not name at that point ('unto my disciples') and a reception it does not record ('many there were that understood me not'). The clause stands at four frozen verses: D&C 10:59, John 10:16, 3 Nephi 15:17, 3 Nephi 15:21.
