fig-tree
Psalm 80:8-13
8
Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9
Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
10
The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.
11
She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
12
Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
13
The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.

3
And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
4
What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?

12
And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
13
Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.
