Jacob 5:45
And thou beheldest that a part thereof brought forth good fruit,
and a part thereof brought forth wild fruit;
and because I plucked not the branches thereof and cast them into the fire,
behold, they have overcome the good branch that it hath withered away.
Jacob 5:48
And it came to pass that the servant said unto his master:
Is it not the loftiness of thy vineyard —
have not the branches thereof overcome the roots which are good?
And because the branches have overcome the roots thereof,
behold they grew faster than the strength of the roots,
taking strength unto themselves.
Behold, I say,
is not this the cause
that the trees of thy vineyard have become corrupted?
Jacob 5:58
And we will nourish again the trees of the vineyard,
and we will trim up the branches thereof;
and we will pluck from the trees those branches
which are ripened, that must perish,
and cast them into the fire.
