Par ▾

6 And He [began] telling this parable: |A man had a fig tree which had been planted in his vineyard; and he came looking for fruit on it and did not find any.

7 |And he said to the vineyard-keeper, 'Behold, for three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree without finding any. Cut it down! Why does it even use up the ground?'

8 |And he answered and said to him, 'Let it alone, sir, for this year too, until I dig around it and put in fertilizer;

9 and if it bears fruit next year, [fine]; but if not, cut it down.'|
