Jacob 5:45, 59, 65, 66, 77

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 5:59

And this I do that, perhaps, the roots thereof may take strength

because of their goodness; and because of the change of the branches,

that the good may overcome the evil.

Jacob 5:65

And as they begin to grow

ye shall clear away the branches which bring forth bitter fruit,

according to the strength of the good and the size thereof;

and ye shall not clear away the bad thereof all at once,

lest the roots thereof should be too strong for the graft,

and the graft thereof shall perish, and I lose the trees of my vineyard.

Jacob 5:66

For it grieveth me that I should lose the trees of my vineyard;

wherefore ye shall clear away the bad according as the good shall grow,

that the root and the top may be equal in strength,

until the good shall overcome the bad,

and the bad be hewn down and cast into the fire,

that they cumber not the ground of my vineyard;

and thus will I sweep away the bad out of my vineyard.

Jacob 5:77

And when the time cometh that evil fruit shall again come into my vineyard,

then will I cause the good and the bad to be gathered;

and the good will I preserve unto myself,

and the bad will I cast away into its own place.

And then cometh the season and the end;

and my vineyard will I cause to be burned with fire.
