16 They said to Jesus, "Do you hear what these children are saying?" "Yes," he answered. "Haven’t you ever read, From the mouths of babies and infants you’ve arranged praise for yourself?"
17 Then he left them and went out of the city to Bethany and spent the night there.
18 Early in the morning as Jesus was returning to the city, he was hungry.
19 He saw a fig tree along the road, but when he came to it, he found nothing except leaves. Then he said to it, "You’ll never again bear fruit!" The fig tree dried up at once.
20 When the disciples saw it, they were amazed. "How did the fig tree dry up so fast?" they asked.
21 Jesus responded, "I assure you that if you have faith and don’t doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree. You will even say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the lake.’ And it will happen.
22 If you have faith, you will receive whatever you pray for."
