Jacob 4:1

Now behold, it came to pass that

I, Jacob, having ministered much unto my people in word,

(and I cannot write but a little of my words,

because of the difficulty of engraving our words upon plates)

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

Jacob 4:5

Behold, they believed in Christ and worshiped the Father in his name,

and also we worship the Father in his name.

And for this intent we keep the law of Moses,

it pointing our souls to him;

and for this cause it is sanctified unto us for righteousness,

even as it was accounted unto Abraham in the wilderness to be obedient

unto the commands of God in offering up his son Isaac,

which is a similitude of God and his Only Begotten Son.

Jacob 4:7

Nevertheless, the Lord God showeth us our weakness that we may know

that it is by his grace, and his great condescensions unto the children of men,

that we have power to do these things.

Jacob 4:8

Behold, great and marvelous are the works of the Lord.

How unsearchable are the depths of the mysteries of him;

and it is impossible that man should find out all his ways.

And no man knoweth of his ways save it be revealed unto him;

wherefore, brethren, despise not the revelations of God.

Jacob 4:11

Wherefore, beloved brethren, be reconciled unto him

through the atonement of Christ, his Only Begotten Son,

and ye may obtain a resurrection,

according to the power of the resurrection which is in Christ,

and be presented as the first-fruits of Christ unto God,

having faith, and obtained a good hope of glory in him

before he manifesteth himself in the flesh.

Jacob 4:13

Behold, my brethren, he that prophesieth,

let him prophesy to the understanding of men;

for the Spirit speaketh the truth and lieth not.

Wherefore, it speaketh of things as they really are,

and of things as they really will be;

wherefore, these things are manifested unto us plainly,

for the salvation of our souls.

But behold, we are not witnesses alone in these things;

for God also spake them unto prophets of old.

Jacob 4:14

But behold, the Jews were a stiffnecked people;

and they despised the words of plainness, and killed the prophets,

and sought for things that they could not understand.

Wherefore, because of their blindness,

which blindness came by looking beyond the mark,

they must needs fall;

for God hath taken away his plainness from them,

and delivered unto them many things which they cannot understand,

because they desired it.

And because they desired it

God hath done it, that they may stumble.

Jacob 4:15

And now I, Jacob, am led on by the Spirit unto prophesying;

for I perceive by the workings of the Spirit which is in me,

that by the stumbling of the Jews they will reject the stone

upon which they might build and have safe foundation.

Jacob 4:18

Behold, my beloved brethren, I will unfold this mystery unto you;

if I do not, by any means, get shaken from my firmness in the Spirit,

and stumble because of my over anxiety for you.

to have read the words of the prophet Zenos,

which he spake unto the house of Israel, saying:

I will liken thee, O house of Israel, like unto a tame olive tree,

which a man took and nourished in his vineyard;

and it grew, and waxed old, and began to decay.

Jacob 5:7

And it came to pass that the master of the vineyard saw it,

and he said unto his servant:

It grieveth me that I should lose this tree;

wherefore, go and pluck the branches from a wild olive tree,

and bring them hither unto me;

and we will pluck off those main branches

which are beginning to wither away,

and we will cast them into the fire that they may be burned.

Jacob 5:8

And behold, saith the Lord of the vineyard,

I take away many of these young and tender branches,

and I will graft them whithersoever I will;

and it mattereth not that if it so be that the root of this tree will perish,

I may preserve the fruit thereof unto myself;

wherefore, I will take these young and tender branches,

and I will graft them whithersoever I will.

Jacob 5:11

And the Lord of the vineyard caused

that it should be digged about, and pruned, and nourished,

saying unto his servant:

It grieveth me that I should lose this tree;

wherefore, that perhaps I might preserve the roots thereof

that they perish not, that I might preserve them unto myself,

I have done this thing.

Jacob 5:13

And these will I place in the nethermost part of my vineyard,

whithersoever I will, it mattereth not unto thee;

and I do it that I may preserve unto myself the natural branches of the tree;

for it grieveth me that I should lose this tree and the fruit thereof.

and beheld the tree in the which the wild olive branches had been grafted;

and it had sprung forth and begun to bear fruit.

and the fruit thereof was like unto the natural fruit.

Jacob 5:18

And he said unto the servant:

Behold, the branches of the wild tree

have taken hold of the moisture of the root thereof,

that the root thereof hath brought forth much strength;

and because of the much strength of the root thereof

the wild branches have brought forth tame fruit.

Now, if we had not grafted in these branches,

the tree thereof would have perished.

And now, behold, I shall lay up much fruit,

which the tree thereof hath brought forth;

and the fruit thereof I shall lay up against the season, unto mine own self.

Jacob 5:19

And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard said unto the servant:

Jacob 5:20

whither the master had hid the natural branches of the tree,

and he said unto the servant:

Behold these;

and he beheld the first that it had brought forth much fruit;

and he beheld also that it was good.

And he said unto the servant:

Take of the fruit thereof, and lay it up against the season,

that I may preserve it unto mine own self;

for behold, said he, this long time have I nourished it,

and it hath brought forth much fruit.

How comest thou hither to plant this tree, or this branch of the tree?

For behold, it was the poorest spot in all the land of thy vineyard.

Jacob 5:22

And the Lord of the vineyard said unto him:

Counsel me not;

I knew that it was a poor spot of ground;

wherefore, I said unto thee, I have nourished it this long time,

and thou beholdest that it hath brought forth much fruit.

Jacob 5:23

And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard said unto his servant:

Look hither; behold I have planted another branch of the tree also;

and thou knowest that this spot of ground was poorer than the first.

But, behold the tree.

I have nourished it this long time,

and it hath brought forth much fruit;

therefore, gather it, and lay it up against the season,

that I may preserve it unto mine own self.

Jacob 5:24

And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard said again unto his servant:

Look hither, and behold another branch also, which I have planted;

behold that I have nourished it also,

and it hath brought forth fruit.

Jacob 5:25

Look hither and behold the last.

Behold, this have I planted in a good spot of ground;

and I have nourished it this long time,

and only a part of the tree hath brought forth tame fruit,

and the other part of the tree hath brought forth wild fruit;

behold, I have nourished this tree like unto the others.

that thou canst lay it up against the season.

and the Lord of the vineyard said unto his servant:

that we may labor again in the vineyard.

wherefore, I must lay up fruit against the season, unto mine own self.

Jacob 5:31

And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard

did taste of the fruit, every sort according to its number.

And the Lord of the vineyard said:

Behold, this long time have we nourished this tree,

and I have laid up unto myself against the season much fruit.

Jacob 5:33

And the Lord of the vineyard said unto the servant:

What shall we do unto the tree,

that I may preserve again good fruit thereof unto mine own self?

Jacob 5:34

And the servant said unto his master:

they have nourished the roots,

that they are alive and they have not perished;

wherefore thou beholdest that they are yet good.

above all other parts of the land of my vineyard.

which we have taken of my vineyard,

the trees thereof have become corrupted,

that they bring forth no good fruit;

to have laid up fruit thereof against the season, unto mine own self.

and they are of no worth but to be hewn down and cast into the fire;

and it grieveth me that I should lose them.

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?

taking strength unto themselves.

Behold, I say,

is not this the cause

that the trees of thy vineyard have become corrupted?

Jacob 5:49

And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard said unto the servant:

Let us go to and hew down the trees of the vineyard and cast them into the fire,

Spare it a little longer.

that, perhaps, I may preserve unto myself the roots thereof for mine own purpose.

Jacob 5:54

which I planted whithersoever I would are yet alive;

wherefore, that I may preserve them also for mine own purpose,

I will take of the branches of this tree, and I will graft them in unto them.

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

perhaps they may bring forth good fruit unto me,

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

Go to, and labor in the vineyard, with your might.

for the end is nigh at hand, and the season speedily cometh;

and if ye labor with your might with me ye shall have joy in the fruit

which I shall lay up unto myself against the time which will soon come.

Jacob 5:74

And thus they labored, with all diligence,

according to the commandments of the Lord of the vineyard,

even until the bad had been cast away out of the vineyard,

and the Lord had preserved unto himself

and the Lord of the vineyard had preserved unto himself the natural fruit,

which was most precious unto him from the beginning.

Jacob 5:75

And it came to pass that when the Lord of the vineyard saw

that his fruit was good, and that his vineyard was no more corrupt,

and thou beholdest that I have done according to my will;

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.

Jacob 5:76

For behold, for a long time will I lay up of the fruit of my vineyard

unto mine own self against the season, which speedily cometh;

and for the last time have I nourished my vineyard,

and pruned it, and dug about it, and dunged it;

wherefore I will lay up unto mine own self of the fruit, for a long time,

according to that which I have spoken.

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.
