Luke 13:1-9

Luke 13:1-9

[1] There were present  at  that season  some  that told  him  of  the Galilaeans,  whose  blood  Pilate  had mingled  with  their  sacrifices.  [2] And  answering  said  unto them,  Suppose ye  that  these  Galilaeans  were  sinners  above  all  the Galilaeans,  because  they suffered  [3] I tell  Nay:  but,  ye repent,  all  perish.  [4] Or  those  eighteen,  upon  whom  the tower  in  Siloam  fell,  and  slew  them,  think ye  that  were  sinners  above  all  men  that dwelt  in  Jerusalem?  [5] I tell  Nay:  but,  ye repent,  all  perish.  [6] also  parable;  A certain  man had  a fig tree  planted  in  his  vineyard;  and  he came  and sought  fruit  thereon,  and  found  none.  [7] Then  said he  unto  the dresser of his vineyard,  Behold,  these three  years  I come  seeking  fruit  on  fig tree,  and  find  none:  it  down;  cumbereth  it  the ground?  [8] And  he answering  said  unto him,  Lord,  it  alone  year  also,  till  I shall dig  about  it,  and  dung  [9] And if  it bear  fruit,  well: and if not,  then after that  it  down.
