Matthew 21:18-22 - A Barren Fig Tree Cursed

Matthew 21:18-22

18 and in the morning turning back to the city, he hungered, 19 and having seen a certain fig-tree on the way, he came to it, and found nothing in it except leaves only, and he saith to it, 'No more from thee may fruit be -- to the age;' and forthwith the fig-tree withered.

20 And the disciples having seen, did wonder, saying, 'How did the fig-tree forthwith wither?'

21 And Jesus answering said to them, 'Verily I say to you, If ye may have faith, and may not doubt, not only this of the fig-tree shall ye do, but even if to this mount ye may say, Be lifted up and be cast into the sea, it shall come to pass; 22 and all -- as much as ye may ask in the prayer, believing, ye shall receive.'

Mark 11:12-14

12 And on the morrow, they having come forth from Bethany, he hungered, 13 and having seen a fig-tree afar off having leaves, he came, if perhaps he shall find anything in it, and having come to it, he found nothing except leaves, for it was not a time of figs, 14 and Jesus answering said to it, 'No more from thee -- to the age -- may any eat fruit;' and his disciples were hearing.
