Luke 13:1-7 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. At that time, some people came and reported to Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

2. And He responded to them, “Do you think that these Galileans were more sinful than all Galileans because they suffered these things?

3. No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as well!

4. Or those 18 that the tower in Siloam fell on and killed — do you think they were more sinful than all the people who live in Jerusalem?

5. No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as well! ”

6. And He told this parable: “A man had a fig tree that was planted in his vineyard. He came looking for fruit on it and found none.

7. He told the vineyard worker, ‘Listen, for three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it even waste the soil? ’
