Matthew 21
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
18 Ref Now in the morning when he was coming back to the town, he had a desire for food.
19 Ref And seeing a fig-tree by the wayside, he came to it, and saw nothing on it but leaves only; and he said to it, Let there be no fruit from you from this time forward for ever. And straight away the fig-tree became dry and dead.
20 Ref And when the disciples saw it they were surprised, saying, How did the fig-tree become dry in so short a time?
21 Ref And Jesus in answer said to them, Truly I say to you, If you have faith, without doubting, not only may you do what has been done to the fig-tree, but even if you say to this mountain, Be taken up and put into the sea, it will be done.
22 Ref And all things, whatever you make request for in prayer, having faith, you will get.
23 Ref And when he had come into the Temple, the chief priests and those in authority over the people came to him while he was teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? and who gave you this authority?

21 Ref And Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do what is done to the fig tree, but even if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, it shall be done.
22 Ref And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
23 Ref And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
