Doctrine and Covenants D&C 132:53
"I give unto my servant Joseph that he shall be made ruler over many things; for he hath been faithful over a few things, and from henceforth I will strengthen him."
New Testament Matthew 25:21
"thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord."

Shared words: been faithful over a few things

Divergences: order - the parable states the faithfulness first and the promotion second, the revelation the reverse; and the parable's commendation and closing invitation have no counterpart in the revelation's verse. 'faithful over a few things' stands at four distinct frozen verses in the corpus: D&C 117:10, D&C 132:53, Matthew 25:21, Matthew 25:23. D&C 117:10 is registered against Matthew 25:21 separately (w6-dc117-faithful-few-things-matt25); D&C 51:19 is already registered against Matthew 25:21 for the parable's closing invitation. Matthew 25:23 disclosed.
