Jacob 5:36

Nevertheless, I know that the roots are good,

and for mine own purpose I have preserved them;

and because of their much strength

they have hitherto brought forth, from the wild branches, good fruit.

Jacob 5:60

And because that I have preserved the natural branches and the roots thereof,

and that I have grafted in the natural branches again into their mother tree,

and have preserved the roots of their mother tree,

that, perhaps, the trees of my vineyard may bring forth again good fruit

and that I may have joy again in the fruit of my vineyard,

and, perhaps, that I may rejoice exceedingly

that I have preserved the roots and the branches of the first fruit —

Jacob 5:75

And it came to pass that when the Lord of the vineyard saw

that his fruit was good, and that his vineyard was no more corrupt,

he called up his servants, and said unto them:

Behold, for this last time have we nourished my vineyard;

and thou beholdest that I have done according to my will;

and I have preserved the natural fruit,

that it is good, even like as it was in the beginning.

And blessed art thou;

for because ye have been diligent in laboring with me in my vineyard,

and have kept my commandments,

and have brought unto me again the natural fruit,

that my vineyard is no more corrupted, and the bad is cast away,

behold ye shall have joy with me because of the fruit of my vineyard.
