5 No I tell you, but unless ye repent, all similarly ye will perish. 6. and he told this parable. A fig-tree had a certain man having been planted in the vineyard of him, and came seeking fruit in it and found not. 7 And he said to the vinedresser: Behold three years it is since I come seeking fruit in fig-tree this and find not; cut down it; why even the ground it spoils? 8 But he answering says to him: Lord, leave it also this year, until I may dig round it and may throw dung. 9 and if indeed it makes fruit in the future: otherwise, thou shalt cut down it.
