Doctrine and Covenants D&C 64:33
"And out of small things proceedeth that which is great."
Book of Mormon Alma 37:6
"by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise."

Registered as allusion: the proposition is the same and no four-word run is. Divergences: the record's maxim adds a second clause about confounding the wise, restated at Alma 37:7, which the revelation has no counterpart for; and the record applies it to a physical object it has just been describing where the revelation applies it to a work being founded. 'out of small things proceedeth that which is great' stands at exactly one distinct frozen verse in the corpus.
