Jacob 4:17

And now, my beloved, how is it possible

that these, after having rejected the sure foundation, can ever build upon it,

that it may become the head of their corner?

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 5:27

But behold, the servant said unto him:

Let us prune it, and dig about it, and nourish it a little longer,

that perhaps it may bring forth good fruit unto thee,

that thou canst lay it up against the season.

Jacob 5:37

But behold, the wild branches have grown and have overrun the roots thereof;

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.
