Doctrine and Covenants D&C 101:42
"He that exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that abaseth himself shall be exalted."
New Testament Luke 14:11
"For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted."

Shared words: exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that

Divergences: one verb - the revelation reads 'he that abaseth himself' where the gospels read 'he that humbleth himself', which makes the revelation's version a strict inversion on a single root rather than a pairing of two. The saying stands at Luke 14:11, Luke 18:14, and Matthew 23:12 in the gospels, all three with 'humbleth'; the two Luke verses are the nearer in wording, and Luke 14:11 is paired as the first of them in the corpus's order. 'abased' stands at six distinct frozen verses in the corpus.
