Verses 1–10
1 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 And Jesus answering, said to them, Suppose ye that these Galileans were sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered such things?
3 I tell you, No; but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, No; but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
6 He spoke also this parable: A certain [man] had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit on it, and found none.
7 Then said he to 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?
8 And he answering, said to him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung [it]:
9 And if it shall bear fruit, [well]: and if not, [then] after that thou shalt cut it down.
10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.
