Jacob 5:4, 17, 18
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 5:17
And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard looked
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 he beheld that it was good;
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.
