20 And in the morning, as they were passing by, they saw the fig-tree withered from the roots. 21 And Peter reminding him said, Rabbi, behold, the fig-tree which thou cursedst is withered away. 22 And Jesus answering said to them, Have faith in God. 23 For verily I say to you, That whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou lifted up, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall harbour no doubt in his heart, but believe that what he saith shall come to pass; whatsoever he may speak shall be done for him. 24 Therefore I say unto you, That all things whatever ye ask in prayer, believe that ye shall receive them, and they shall be given you. 25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have a matter against any man: that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if ye forgive not, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. 27 And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders, come to him, 28 and say to him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority, that thou shouldest do these things? 29 Then Jesus answering said unto them, I also will ask you one question; and answer me; and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. 30 The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me. 31 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we reply, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him? 32 but if we say of men'they feared the people: for all men held John to be in truth a prophet. 33 And they answering said to Jesus, We do not know. And Jesus in reply said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things. Mark 11:20-33, Haweis New Testament. Public domain.
