Doctrine and Covenants D&C 113:7
"What is meant by the command in Isaiah, 52d chapter, 1st verse, which saith: Put on thy strength, O Zion—and what people had Isaiah reference to?"
Old Testament Isaiah 52:1
"Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city"

Shared words: Put on thy strength, O Zion

The question names book, chapter, and verse and then quotes the verse. Divergence: capitalization only inside the quoted run - 'Put' where the prophecy has 'put', the revelation's quotation beginning a sentence. The answer, D&C 113:8, supplies both an identification and a definition of 'put on her strength' as putting on priesthood authority. 'put on thy strength' stands at four distinct frozen verses in the corpus: D&C 113:7, Isaiah 52:1, 2 Nephi 8:24, 3 Nephi 20:36 - the last two reproducing the prophecy inside the Book of Mormon, and 2 Nephi 8:24 already registered against Isaiah 52:1; both disclosed.
