Jacob 5:9

Take thou the branches of the wild olive tree,

and graft them in, in the stead thereof;

and these which I have plucked off

I will cast into the fire and burn them,

that they may not cumber the ground of my vineyard.

Jacob 5:30

And it came to pass that

the Lord of the vineyard and the servant went down into the vineyard;

and they came to the tree whose natural branches had been broken off,

and the wild branches had been grafted in;

and behold all sorts of fruit did cumber the tree.

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,

that they shall not cumber the ground of my vineyard,

for I have done all.

What could I have done more for my vineyard?
