Doctrine and Covenants D&C 133:40
"O that thou wouldst rend the heavens, that thou wouldst come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence."
Old Testament Isaiah 64:1
"Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,"

Shared words: come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence

Ten consecutive words match as printed; counted with the two verses' divergent trailing marks set aside, the shared run is eleven words, 'come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence'. Across the whole sentence the two verses align word for word over twenty-one words, and the only divergences are the opening interjection, 'O' in the revelation against 'Oh' in the prophecy, and the spelling of the auxiliary, 'wouldst' against 'wouldest', twice. The revelation frames the words as the cry of those calling upon the name of the Lord day and night; the prophecy states them without naming who says them.
