Doctrine and Covenants D&C 110:4
"I am the first and the last; I am he who liveth, I am he who was slain; I am your advocate with the Father."
New Testament Revelation 1:17
"Fear not; I am the first and the last"

Shared words: I am the first and the last

Six words identical. What follows differs: the vision of Revelation continues at 1:18 with 'I am he that liveth, and was dead' where the report reads 'I am he who liveth, I am he who was slain' — the participle 'dead' replaced by 'slain', and the two clauses given parallel first-person openings the other does not have.
