Jacob 5:47

But what could I have done more in my vineyard?

Have I slackened mine hand, that I have not nourished it?

Nay, I have nourished it, and I have digged about it,

and I have pruned it, and I have dunged it;

and I have stretched forth mine hand almost all the day long,

and the end draweth nigh.

And it grieveth me that I should hew down all the trees of my vineyard,

and cast them into the fire that they should be burned.

Who is it that has corrupted my vineyard?

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?
