And on the morrow, when they were gone out of Bethany, he hungered.
13
And seeing from afar off a fig-tree which had leaves, he came, if perhaps he might find something on it. And having come up to it he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the time of figs.
14
And answering he said to it, Let no one eat fruit of thee any more for ever. And his disciples heard [it].
15
And they come to Jerusalem, and entering into the temple, he began to cast out those who sold and who bought in the temple, and he overthrew the tables of the moneychangers and the seats of the dove-sellers,
16
and suffered not that any one should carry any package through the temple.
17
And he taught saying to them, Is it not written, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? but *ye* have made it a den of robbers.
18
And the chief priests and the scribes heard [it], and they sought how they might destroy him; for they feared him, because all the crowd were astonished at his doctrine.
19
And when it was evening he went forth without the city.
20
And passing by early in the morning they saw the fig-tree dried up from the roots.
21
And Peter, remembering [what Jesus had said], says to him, Rabbi, see, the fig-tree which thou cursedst is dried up.
22
And Jesus answering says to them, Have faith in God.
