Habakkuk 3:17
Habakkuk Rejoices in the Lord
17 Though the fig tree should not blossom,nor fruit be on the vines,
the produce of the olive fail
and the fields yield no food,
the flock be cut off from the fold
and there be no herd in the stalls,
Haggai 1:11
11And aI have called for a drought on the land and the hills, on bthe grain, the new wine, the oil, on what the ground brings forth, on man and beast, and con all their labors.”Haggai 2:17
17 dI struck you and all the products of your toil with blight and with mildew and with hail, eyet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord.Matthew 21:19
19 fAnd seeing a fig tree by the wayside, he went to it and found nothing on it but only leaves. And he said to it, “May no fruit ever come from you again!” And the fig tree withered at once.Luke 13:6-9
The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree
6And he told this parable: “A man had ga fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. 7And he said to the vinedresser, ‘Look, for three years now I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. hCut it down. Why should it use up the ground?’ 8And he answered him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put on manure. 9Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.’”
