Luke:13:1-9

*
There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans ,
whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices .
*
And Jesus answering said unto them ,
Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans ,
because they suffered such things ?
*
I tell you ,
Nay :
but ,
except ye repent ,
ye shall all likewise perish .
*
Or those eighteen ,
upon whom the tower in Siloam fell ,
and slew them ,
think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem ?
*
I tell you ,
Nay :
but ,
except ye repent ,
ye shall all likewise perish .
*
He spake also this parable ;
A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard ;
and he came and sought fruit thereon ,
and found none .
*
Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard ,
Behold ,
these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree ,
and find none :
cut it down ;
why cumbereth it the ground ?
*
And he answering said unto him ,
Lord ,
let it alone this year also ,
till I shall dig about it ,
and dung it :
*
And if it bear fruit ,
well :
and if not ,
then after that thou shalt cut it down .
