Doctrine and Covenants D&C 33:2
"For verily, verily, I say unto you that ye are called to lift up your voices as with the sound of a trump, to declare my gospel unto a crooked and perverse generation."
New Testament Philippians 2:15
"That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;"

Shared words: a crooked and perverse

'crooked and perverse' stands at exactly three frozen verses: these two and D&C 34:6, which reads 'cry repentance unto a crooked and perverse generation' — disclosed, not separately paired. Divergences: the epistle's noun is 'nation', the revelations' 'generation'; the epistle places the saints in the midst of it, the revelation sends them to declare to it.
