Doctrine and Covenants D&C 109:6
"And as thou hast said in a revelation, given to us, calling us thy friends, saying—Call your solemn assembly, as I have commanded you"
Doctrine and Covenants D&C 88:117
"Therefore, verily I say unto you, my friends, call your solemn assembly, as I have commanded you."

Shared words: Call your solemn assembly, as I have commanded you

Intra-D&C pairing; the register lists the lower-numbered section as its second reference. Eight words run identical, 'your solemn assembly, as I have commanded you', and the prayer's framing clause supplies in its own words the two features that identify the earlier verse: a revelation given to the petitioners, and one calling them friends. It names no reference, so the record is wiki-asserted. 'solemn assembly' stands at fifteen distinct frozen verses in the corpus; this is the only pair in which one verse announces itself as quoting the other. D&C 109 is a prayer addressed to God, not a divine first-person address; the section's statements are the petitioners' and are reported as such. Counts are of distinct frozen verses in the corpus, derived by search at the time of writing.
