103 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.

104 Who is it that has corrupted my vineyard?

105 And it came to pass that the servant said unto his master, Is it not the loftiness of thy vineyard?

106 Have not the branches thereof overcome the roots, which are good?

107 And because the branches have overcome the roots thereof, behold, they grew faster than the strength of the roots, taking strength unto themselves.

108 Behold, I say, Is not this the cause that the trees of thy vineyard have become corrupted?

109 And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard said unto the servant, Let us go to, and hew down the trees of the vineyard, and cast them into the fire, that they shall not cumber the ground of my vineyard: for I have done all; what could I have done more for my vineyard?

110 But behold, the servant said unto the Lord of the vineyard, Spare it a little longer.

111 And the Lord said, Yea, I will spare it a little longer: for it grieveth me that I should lose the trees of my vineyard.

112 Wherefore let us take of the branches of these which I have planted in the nethermost parts of my vineyard, and let us graft them into the tree from whence they came;

113 And let us pluck from the tree those branches whose fruit is most bitter, and graft in the natural branches of the tree in the stead thereof.
