Mark 11:12-25

12

TheG3588 next dayG1887, when theyG846 had leftG1831G575 BethanyG963, Jesus was hungryG3983. 13SeeingG3708 inG575 the distanceG3113 a fig treeG4808 inG2192 leafG5444, He wentG2064 to seeG2147 ifG1487 there wasG687 anyG5100 fruit onG1722 itG846. But whenG2532 He reachedG2064G1909 itG846, He foundG2147 nothingG3762 on it exceptG1487G3361 leavesG5444, sinceG1063 it wasG1510 notG3756 theG3588 seasonG2540 for figsG4810. 14ThenG2532 He saidG611G2036 toG846 the tree, “May no oneG3367 everG3371G1519G3588G165 eatG5315 ofG1537 yourG4771 fruit againG2590.” AndG2532 HisG846 disciplesG3101 heardG191 this statement.

15WhenG2532 they arrivedG2064 inG1519 JerusalemG2414, Jesus enteredG1525G1519 theG3588 templeG2411 courts and beganG756 to drive outG1544 those whoG3588 were buyingG59 andG2532 sellingG4453 there. He overturnedG2690 theG3588 tablesG5132 of theG3588 money changersG2855 andG2532 theG3588 seatsG2515 of thoseG3588 sellingG4453 dovesG4058. 16AndG2532 He would not allowG3756G863 anyoneG5100 to carryG1308 merchandiseG4632 throughG1223 theG3588 templeG2411 courts. 17ThenG2532 Jesus began to teachG1321 themG846, andG2532 He declaredG2036, “Is it not writtenG3756G1125: ‘MyG1473 houseG3624 will be calledG2564 a houseG3624 of prayerG4335 for allG3956 theG3588 nationsG1484’1? ButG1161 youG4771 have madeG4160 itG846 ‘a denG4693 of robbersG3027.’2”

18WhenG2532 theG3588 chief priestsG749 andG2532 scribesG1122 heardG191 this, they looked forG2212 a wayG4459 to killG622 HimG846. ForG1063 they were afraidG5399 of HimG846, becauseG1063 theG3588 wholeG3956 crowdG3793 was astonishedG1605 atG1909 HisG846 teachingG1322.

19AndG2532 whenG3752 eveningG3796 cameG1096, Jesus and His disciples wentG16073 out ofG1854 theG3588 cityG4172.

20As they were walking backG3899 in the morningG4404, they sawG3708 theG3588 fig treeG4808 witheredG3583 fromG1537 its rootsG4491. 21PeterG4074 rememberedG363 it and saidG3004, “LookG2400, RabbiG4461! TheG3588 fig treeG4808 You cursedG2672 has witheredG3583.”

22“HaveG2192 faithG4102 in GodG2316,” JesusG2424 saidG611G3004 to themG846. 23“TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771 thatG3754 if anyoneG3739G302 saysG2036 to thisG3778 mountainG3735, ‘Be lifted upG142 andG2532 thrownG906 intoG1519 theG3588 seaG2281,’ andG2532 has no doubtG3361G1252 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588 butG235 believesG4100 thatG3754 it will happenG1096, it will be doneG1510 for himG846. 24ThereforeG1223G3778 I tellG3004 youG4771, whateverG3956G3745 you ask forG154 in prayerG4336, believeG4100 thatG3754 you have receivedG2983 it, andG2532 it will beG1510 yoursG4771.

25AndG2532 whenG3752 you standG4739 to prayG4336, ifG1487 you holdG2192 anythingG5100 againstG2596 another, forgiveG863 it, so thatG2443 yourG4771 FatherG3962 inG1722 heavenG3772 will forgiveG863 yourG4771 trespassesG3900 as wellG2532.4”
