Doctrine and Covenants D&C 61:38
"Gird up your loins and be watchful and be sober, looking forth for the coming of the Son of Man, for he cometh in an hour you think not."
New Testament Luke 12:40
"Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not."

Shared words: the Son of Man

Divergences: the gospel's preposition is 'at' where the revelation's is 'in'; the gospel supplies 'when', the revelation drops it. The revelation prefixes an instruction the gospel verse does not carry — the girding, watchfulness and sobriety — and names the Son of Man in the clause before rather than inside it.
