Luke 13:7-9
Read Luke 13 in full →7“And he said to the vineyard-keeper, ‘Behold, for three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree 1without finding any. aCut it down! Why does it even use up the ground?’ 8“And he answered and said to him, ‘Let it alone, sir, for this year too, until I dig around it and put in manure, 9and if it bears fruit next year, fine, but if not, cut it down.’”
