Doctrine and Covenants D&C 63:9
"But, behold, faith cometh not by signs, but signs follow those that believe."
New Testament Romans 10:17
"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

Divergences: the epistle states what faith comes by, the revelation what it does not come by, and supplies the reverse direction rather than naming an alternative source. Registered as allusion rather than shared phrasing: the shared verbatim run is 'faith cometh', two words, and the two verses share a construction rather than a passage. That run stands at exactly two distinct frozen verses in the corpus - these two - which is what makes the correspondence worth registering.
