Doctrine and Covenants D&C 24:18
"And thou shalt take no purse nor scrip, neither staves, neither two coats, for the church shall give unto thee in the very hour what thou needest for food and for raiment, and for shoes and for money, and for scrip."
New Testament Luke 9:3
"Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece."

Shared words: nor scrip, neither

Both forbid the same short list. Divergences: the gospel's prohibition is absolute; the revelation pairs it with a provision clause naming five things the church is to supply in the very hour — including scrip and money, which the same verse has just forbidden the missionary to carry. 'two coats' stands at six frozen verses; 'purse' at nine.
