LEB(i)
6 And he told this parable: "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came looking for fruit on it and did not find any.*
7 So he said to the gardener, 'Behold, ⌊for three years⌋* I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree and did not find any.* Cut it down!* Why should it even exhaust the soil?'
8 But he answered and* said to him, 'Sir, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put manure on it.*
9 And if indeed it produces fruit in the coming year, so much the better,* but if not, you can cut it down.'"
