Doctrine and Covenants D&C 1:13
"And the anger of the Lord is kindled, and his sword is bathed in heaven, and it shall fall upon the inhabitants of the earth."
Old Testament Isaiah 34:5
"For my sword shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Idumea, and upon the people of my curse, to judgment."

Shared words: bathed in heaven

'bathed in heaven' stands at exactly two distinct frozen verses in the corpus, these two. Divergences: the prophecy speaks in the first person of 'my sword' and the revelation in the third of 'his sword'; the prophecy's tense is future, the revelation's present. What the sword falls upon differs, and that difference is registered separately at D&C 1:36. Registered at the 2026-08-11 editorial review.
