Doctrine and Covenants D&C 45:26
"and men's hearts shall fail them, and they shall say that Christ delayeth his coming until the end of the earth."
New Testament Luke 21:26
"Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken."

Shared words: men's hearts

Both attach the failing hearts to the same catalogue of signs. The stated reason differs: the discourse gives fear and anticipation, the revelation gives a spoken conclusion, that the coming is delayed. The clause about delay has no counterpart in the discourse at this point. Registered at the 2026-08-11 editorial review.
