16 and said to Him, “Do You hear what these say?” And יהושע said to them, “Yea, have you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of babes and nurslings You have perfected praise’?”
17 And having left them He went out of the city to Bĕyth Anyah, and spent the night there.
18 And returning to the city early in the morning, He became hungry.
19 And seeing a single fig tree by the way, He came to it and found naught on it but leaves, and said to it, “Let no fruit grow on you ever again.” And immediately the fig tree withered.
20 And the taught ones, seeing it, marvelled, saying, “How did the fig tree wither so soon?”
21 And יהושע answering, said to them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have belief and do not doubt, you shall not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be thrown into the sea,’ it shall be done.
22 “And whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.”
