Matthew 21:12-22

12Jesus went into the temple and threw out all those buying and selling. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those selling doves.

13He said to them, “It is written, my house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a den of thieves!”

14The blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them.

15When the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonders that he did and the children shouting in the temple, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” they were indignant

16and said to him, “Do you hear what these children are saying?” Jesus replied, “Yes, have you never read: You have prepared praise from the mouths of infants and nursing babies?”

17Then he left them, went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.

18Early in the morning, as he was returning to the city, he was hungry.

19Seeing a lone fig tree by the road, he went up to it and found nothing on it except leaves. And he said to it, “May no fruit ever come from you again!” At once the fig tree withered.

20When the disciples saw it, they were amazed and said, “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?”

21Jesus answered them, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you tell this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it will be done.

22And if you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
