Jacob 5:7, 48, 57, 58



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 5:48

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 5:57

And the Lord of the vineyard said unto the servant:

Pluck not the wild branches from the trees, save it be those which are most bitter;

and in them ye shall graft according to that which I have said.



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.
