1 At that time some of those present told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate (armed with a spear) had mixed with their sacrifices. 2 To this He replied, “Do you⁺ think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered this way? 3 No, I tell you⁺. But unless you⁺ repent, you⁺ too will all perish. 4 Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam collapsed on them: Do you⁺ think that they were more sinful than all the others living in Jerusalem (city of peace)? 5 No, I tell you⁺. But unless you⁺ repent, you⁺ too will all perish. 6 Then Jesus told this parable: “A man had a fig tree that was planted in his vineyard. He went to look for fruit on it but did not find any. 7 So he said to the keeper of the vineyard, ‘Look (Behold), for the past three years I have come to search for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Therefore cut it down [Cut it down!]! Why should it use up the soil? Luke 13:1-7, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
