Luke 13:5-9

No, I tell you, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”

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.

And he said to the vineyard-keeper, ‘Look! 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?’

But he answered and said to him, ‘Sir, leave it alone for this year too, until I dig around it and put in fertilizer;

and if it bears fruit next year, fine; but if not, cut it down.’ ” Healing on the Sabbath
