Jacob 5:7

And it came to pass that the master of the vineyard saw it,

and he said unto his servant:

It grieveth me that I should lose this tree;

wherefore, go and pluck the branches from a wild olive tree,

and bring them hither unto me;

and we will pluck off those main branches

which are beginning to wither away,

and we will cast them into the fire that they may be burned.

and graft them in, in the stead thereof;

and these which I have plucked off

I will cast into the fire and burn them,

that they may not cumber the ground of my vineyard.

and because that the wild branches have overcome the roots thereof

it hath brought forth much evil fruit;

and because that it hath brought forth so much evil fruit

thou beholdest that it beginneth to perish;

and it will soon become ripened,

that it may be cast into the fire,

except we should do something for it to preserve it.

save it be to be hewn down and cast into the fire.

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.

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.

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?

and we will trim up the branches thereof;

which are ripened, that must perish,

and cast them into the fire.

For it grieveth me that I should lose the trees of my vineyard;

wherefore ye shall clear away the bad according as the good shall grow,

that the root and the top may be equal in strength,

until the good shall overcome the bad,

and the bad be hewn down and cast into the fire,

that they cumber not the ground of my vineyard;

and thus will I sweep away the bad out of my vineyard.
