Doctrine and Covenants D&C 101:91
"Even in outer darkness, where there is weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth."
Book of Mormon Alma 40:13
"and these shall be cast out into outer darkness; there shall be weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth, and this because of their own iniquity, being led captive by the will of the devil."

Shared words: weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth

Divergences: the record's verse supplies the cause where the revelation names the persons consigned in the verse before it (D&C 101:90). 'weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth' stands at four distinct frozen verses in the corpus: these two, D&C 133:73 - which reads almost identically to the verse paired here - and Moses 1:22, where the words describe Satan's own crying. The bare 'gnashing of teeth' stands at sixteen.
