Doctrine and Covenants D&C 101:95
"That I may proceed to bring to pass my act, my strange act, and perform my work, my strange work, that men may discern between the righteous and the wicked, saith your God."
Old Testament Isaiah 28:21
"that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act."

Shared words: bring to pass

Divergences: person, third to first; order, the prophecy putting the work before the act and the revelation the act before the work; and the purpose clause 'that men may discern between the righteous and the wicked', which the prophecy has no counterpart for - the prophecy instead supplies the two place-names the wrath is compared to. 'my strange work' stands at exactly one distinct frozen verse in the corpus, 'strange work' at exactly two (these two), and 'strange act' at three - these two and D&C 95:4, disclosed not paired.
