Luke 13:7-9

WPNT(i) 7 So he said to the gardener: ‘Look, for three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down; just why must it waste the soil?’ 8 But in answer he said to him, ‘Sir, let it be this year also, until I dig around it and apply fertilizer, 9 in case it produces fruit—but if not, then cut it down’.”
