New English Translation

The Withered Fig Tree

¹⁸ Now early in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry. ¹⁹ After noticing a fig tree^[a] by the road he went to it, but found nothing on it except leaves. He said to it, “Never again will there be fruit from you!” And the fig tree withered at once. ²⁰ When the disciples saw it they were amazed, saying, “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?”
