Mark 11:12-25

12The next day when they went out from Bethany, he was hungry.

13Seeing in the distance a fig tree with leaves, he went to find out if there was anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for it was not the season for figs.

14He said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again!” And his disciples heard it.

15They came to Jerusalem, and he went into the temple and began to throw out those buying and selling. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those selling doves,

16and would not permit anyone to carry goods through the temple.

17He was teaching them: “Is it not written, My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it a den of thieves!”

18The chief priests and the scribes heard it and started looking for a way to kill him. For they were afraid of him, because the whole crowd was astonished by his teaching.

19Whenever evening came, they would go out of the city.

20Early in the morning, as they were passing by, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots up.

21Then Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.”

22Jesus replied to them, “Have faith in God.

23Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.

24Therefore I tell you, everything you pray and ask for  —  believe that you have received it and it will be yours.

25And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven will also forgive you your wrongdoing.”
