Now behold, it came to pass that

because of the difficulty of engraving our words upon plates)

and we know that the things which we write upon plates must remain;

as to attain to the knowledge of a resurrection and the world to come?

I have done this thing.

whithersoever I will, it mattereth not unto thee;

and it hath brought forth much fruit.

that I may preserve it unto mine own self.

and it grieveth me that I should lose them.

Yea, I will graft in unto them the branches of their mother tree,

that I may preserve the roots also unto mine own self,

that when they shall be sufficiently strong

perhaps they may bring forth good fruit unto me,

and I may yet have glory in the fruit of my vineyard.

and that I may have joy again in the fruit of my vineyard,

that I have preserved the roots and the branches of the first fruit —

that they cumber not the ground of my vineyard;

and I have preserved the natural fruit,

that it is good, even like as it was in the beginning.

And blessed art thou;

for because ye have been diligent in laboring with me in my vineyard,

and have kept my commandments,

and have brought unto me again the natural fruit,

that my vineyard is no more corrupted, and the bad is cast away,

behold ye shall have joy with me because of the fruit of my vineyard.
