Jacob 4:2

But whatsoever things we write upon anything save it be upon plates

must perish and vanish away;

but we can write a few words upon plates,

which will give our children, and also our beloved brethren,

a small degree of knowledge concerning us, or concerning their fathers —



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.



Jacob 5:58

And we will nourish again the trees of the vineyard,

and we will trim up the branches thereof;

and we will pluck from the trees those branches

which are ripened, that must perish,

and cast them into the fire.



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.
