And he went into Jerusalem into the Temple; and after looking round about on all things, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
12
And on the day after, when they had come out from Bethany, he was in need of food.
13
And seeing a fig-tree in the distance with leaves, he went to see if by chance it had anything on it: and when he came to it, he saw nothing but leaves, for it was not the time for the fruit.
14
And he said to it, Let no man take fruit from you for ever. And his disciples took note of his words.
15
And they came to Jerusalem; and he went into the Temple, and sent out those who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who were offering doves for money;
16
And he would not let any man take a vessel through the Temple.
17
And he gave them teaching, and said to them, Is it not in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer for all the nations? but you have made it a hole of thieves.
18
And it came to the ears of the chief priests and scribes, and they took thought how they might put him to death; being in fear of him, because all the people were full of wonder at his teaching.
19
And every evening he went out of the town.
20
And when they were going by in the morning, they saw the fig-tree dead from the roots.
21
And Peter, having a memory of it, said to him, Master, see, the tree which was cursed by you is dead.
