Jacob 5:4, 8

Jacob 5:4

And it came to pass that the master of the vineyard went forth,

and he saw that his olive tree began to decay; and he said:

I will prune it, and dig about it, and nourish it,

that perhaps it may shoot forth young and tender branches, and it perish not.

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.
