Jacob 5:18, 36, 59

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 5:36

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 5:59

And this I do that, perhaps, the roots thereof may take strength

because of their goodness; and because of the change of the branches,

that the good may overcome the evil.
