15 But the chief priests and the teachers of the Law of Moses were angry when they saw his miracles and heard the children shouting praises to the Son of David.
16 The men said to Jesus, “Don't you hear what those children are saying?”“Yes, I do!” Jesus answered. “Don't you know that the Scriptures say, ‘Children and infants will sing praises’?”
17 Then Jesus left the city and went out to the village of Bethany, where he spent the night.
18 When Jesus got up the next morning, he was hungry. He started out for the city,
19 and along the way he saw a fig tree. But when he came to it, he found only leaves and no figs. So he told the tree, “You will never again grow any fruit!” At once the fig tree dried up.
20 The disciples were shocked when they saw how quickly the tree had dried up.
21 But Jesus said to them, “If you have faith and don't doubt, I promise that you can do what I did to this tree. And you will be able to do even more. You can tell this mountain to get up and jump into the sea, and it will.
