Doctrine and Covenants D&C 132:22
"For strait is the gate, and narrow the way that leadeth unto the exaltation and continuation of the lives, and few there be that find it"
New Testament Matthew 7:14
"Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."

Shared words: and few there be that find it

Divergences: the revelation drops the second 'is'; the destination changes from 'life' to 'the exaltation and continuation of the lives'; and the revelation supplies a reason the sermon does not. 'few there be that find it' stands at four distinct frozen verses in the corpus: 3 Nephi 14:14, 3 Nephi 27:33, D&C 132:22, Matthew 7:14. Matthew is paired because 3 Nephi 14:14 belongs to the sermon-at-the-temple block already mapped; both 3 Nephi verses disclosed.
