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;
and also, that I may lay up fruit thereof against the season, unto myself;
for it grieveth me that I should lose this tree and the fruit thereof.
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:
Come, let us go to the nethermost part of the vineyard,
and behold if the natural branches of the tree
have not brought forth much fruit also,
that I may lay up of the fruit thereof against the season, unto mine own self.
Jacob 5:29
And it came to pass that a long time had passed away,
and the Lord of the vineyard said unto his servant:
Come, let us go down into the vineyard,
that we may labor again in the vineyard.
For behold, the time draweth near, and the end soon cometh;
wherefore, I must lay up fruit against the season, unto mine own self.
Jacob 5:46
And now, behold, notwithstanding all the care
which we have taken of my vineyard,
the trees thereof have become corrupted,
that they bring forth no good fruit;
and these I had hoped to preserve,
to have laid up fruit thereof against the season, unto mine own self.
But, behold, they have become like unto the wild olive tree,
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.
