For a good tree is not producing corrupt fruit, nor a corrupt tree producing good fruit.

And even now the ax is laid at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore not making good fruit is cut down, and cast into fire.

And he spoke this parable. A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.

And he said to the vine workman, Behold, three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none. Cut it down, why also waste the ground?

For each tree is known from its own fruit. For they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they harvest grapes from a bramble bush.

And he spoke a parable to them. Behold the fig tree, and all the trees.
