(2 verses) |
Job 31:23 For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.
Isaiah 13:3 I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
a message from the book of mormon
jacob 5
32 But behold, this time it hath brought forth much afruit, and there is bnone
of it which is good. And behold, there are all kinds of bad fruit; and
it profiteth me nothing, notwithstanding all our labor; and now it
grieveth me that I should lose this tree.
33 And
the Lord of the vineyard said unto the servant: What shall we do unto
the tree, that I may preserve again good fruit thereof unto mine own
self?
34 And
the servant said unto his master: Behold, because thou didst graft in
the branches of the wild olive tree they have nourished the roots, that
they are alive and they have not perished; wherefore thou beholdest that
they are yet good.
35 And
it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard said unto his servant:
The tree profiteth me nothing, and the roots thereof profit me nothing
so long as it shall bring forth evil fruit.
36 Nevertheless,
I know that the roots are good, and for mine own purpose I have
preserved them; and because of their much strength they have hitherto
brought forth, from the wild branches, good fruit. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/bofm/jacob/5?lang=eng
