"if thou art in perils among false brethren; if thou art in perils among robbers; if thou art in perils by land or by sea;"

Shared words: in perils among false brethren

'in perils' stands at exactly two distinct frozen verses in the corpus: these. The older verse lists eight perils in a bare series; this one lists three, each opened by 'if thou art', turning a catalogue of things suffered into a catalogue of things that may yet be. Two of the three are the older verse's own: 'in perils among false brethren' is identical, and 'in perils of robbers' reads 'in perils among robbers'. D&C 121:1-6 is a prayer; the answering first-person voice begins at D&C 121:7 and continues through D&C 122. D&C 123 is counsel offered by a plural first person to brethren, not a divine command. Counts are of distinct frozen verses in the corpus, derived by search at the time of writing.
