Jacob 5:42, 63, 64, 65, 69



Jacob 5:42

Behold, I knew that all the fruit of the vineyard,

save it were these, had become corrupted.

And now these which have once brought forth good fruit

have also become corrupted;

and now all the trees of my vineyard are good for nothing

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



Jacob 5:63

Graft in the branches;

begin at the last that they may be first, and that the first may be last,

and dig about the trees, both old and young,

the first and the last; and the last and the first,

that all may be nourished once again for the last time.



Jacob 5:64

Wherefore, dig about them, and prune them,

and dung them once more, for the last time,

for the end draweth nigh.

And if it be so that these last grafts shall grow, and bring forth the natural fruit,

then shall ye prepare the way for them, that they may grow.



Jacob 5:65

And as they begin to grow

ye shall clear away the branches which bring forth bitter fruit,

according to the strength of the good and the size thereof;

and ye shall not clear away the bad thereof all at once,

lest the roots thereof should be too strong for the graft,

and the graft thereof shall perish, and I lose the trees of my vineyard.



Jacob 5:69

And the bad shall be cast away,

yea, even out of all the land of my vineyard;

for behold, only this once will I prune my vineyard.
