RKJNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ Then he spoke 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 he said to the keeper of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and have found none: cut it down; why should it use up the ground? ⁸ And he answered and said to him, Lord, let it alone this year also, until I shall dig about it, and put manure on it: ⁹ And if it bears fruit, fine: and if not, then you can cut it down.
