Matthew 21:15
Verse 15 of 46. The 21st of 28 chapters in Matthew, in The Gospels.
11The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”
12Jesus entered into the temple of God and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.
13He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers!”
14The lame and the blind came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
15But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children who were crying in the temple and saying, “Hosanna to the son of David!” they were indignant,
16and said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes. Did you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of children and nursing babies, you have perfected praise’?”
17He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and camped there.
18Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.
19Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!” Immediately the fig tree withered away.
