Luke 13 : 6 - 9
Chapter 13
| 6 | He also spoke this parable: "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none.
|
| 7 | Then he said to the keeper of his vineyard, "Look, for three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree and find none. Cut it down; why does it use up the ground?'
|
| 8 | But he answered and said to him, "Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.
|
| 9 | And if it bears fruit, well. But if not, after that you can cut it down."'
|
And Glory be to God forever.
