Doctrine and Covenants D&C 19:18
"Which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit"
Book of Mormon Mosiah 3:7
"for behold, blood cometh from every pore, so great shall be his anguish for the wickedness and the abominations of his people."

Shared words: every pore

The shared element is the figure — blood from every pore — not a shared run of words: the revelation reads 'to bleed at every pore', the angel's prophecy 'blood cometh from every pore'. Each wording stands at exactly one frozen verse, these. Grammatical persons differ throughout (first for third) and the tenses run opposite ways: the angel speaks of what 'shall' happen, the revelation of what its speaker has undergone. The revelation adds the cup — 'would that I might not drink the bitter cup, and shrink' — which Mosiah 3:7 does not carry.
