Jacob 5:11, 47, 65

Jacob 5:11

And the Lord of the vineyard caused

that it should be digged about, and pruned, and nourished,

saying unto his servant:

It grieveth me that I should lose this tree;

wherefore, that perhaps I might preserve the roots thereof

that they perish not, that I might preserve them unto myself,

I have done this thing.

Jacob 5:47

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?

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.
