And now the ax is laid to the root of the trees: every tree therefore which doth not yield good fruit, is cut down and cast into the fire.

For that is not a good tree which produceth bad fruit, nor is the tree bad, which produceth good fruit:

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

And he said to the vine-dresser, behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig-tree, and find none: cut it down, why should it cumber the ground?

for every tree is known by it's fruit; for men do not gather figs from thorns, nor grapes from a bramble.

and all the trees, when they shoot out, ye see and know of yourselves that summer is now near:

and at the fruit-season he sent a servant to the husbandmen that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen beat him and sent him away empty.
