Doctrine and Covenants D&C 6:7
"Seek not for riches but for wisdom, and behold, the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto you, and then shall you be made rich."
Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 10:19
"For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost"

Shared words: the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto

The eight-word run 'the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto' stands at exactly three frozen verses — these two and the revelation's own parallel at D&C 11:7. Divergences: second person 'unto you' for Nephi's 'unto them'; Nephi attaches the unfolding to diligent seeking and to the Holy Ghost, the revelation to seeking wisdom rather than riches. Nephi's verse also closes on 'one eternal round', a clause D&C 3:2 carries of God's constancy (w1-dc3-round-alma7).
