爾欲取城、環攻日久、毋以斧斫樹、其果可食、故勿伐之、田間之樹、豈人也耶、而可攻乎、

When you lay siege to a city for a long time, fighting against it to capture it, do not destroy its trees by putting an ax to them, because you can eat their fruit. Do not cut them down. Are the trees people, that you should besiege them?

Suppose you surround a city and get ready to attack it. And suppose you fight against it for a long time in order to capture it. Then don’t chop down its trees and destroy them. You can eat their fruit. So don’t cut them down. Are the trees people? So why should you attack them?

“ When you besiege a city for a long time, making war against it in order to take it, you shall not destroy its trees by wielding an axe against them. You may eat from them, but you shall not cut them down. Are the trees in the field human, that they should be besieged by you?

“ When you are attacking a town and the war drags on, you must not cut down the trees with your axes. You may eat the fruit, but do not cut down the trees. Are the trees your enemies, that you should attack them?

“ When you lay siege to a city for a long time, fighting against it in order to capture it, do not destroy its trees by putting an ax to them, because you can get food from them. Do not cut them down. Are trees of the field human, to come under siege by you?

“ When you besiege a city for a long time, to make war against it in order to capture it, you shall not destroy its trees by swinging an axe against them; for you may eat from them, so you shall not cut them down. For is the tree of the field a human, that it should be besieged by you?

“ When you besiege a city for a long time, while making war against it to take it, you shall not destroy its trees by wielding an ax against them; if you can eat of them, do not cut them down to use in the siege, for the tree of the field is man’s food.

When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by wielding an axe against them; for thou mayest eat of them, and thou shalt not cut them down; for is the tree of the field man, that it should be besieged of thee?

When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by forcing an axe against them: for thou mayest eat of them, and thou shalt not cut them down( for the tree of the field[ is] man’s[ life]) to employ[ them] in the siege:

If you besiege a city for a long time while attempting to capture it, you must not chop down its trees, for you may eat fruit from them and should not cut them down. A tree in the field is not human that you should besiege it!

现在斧子已经放在树根上，所有不结好果子的树都要被砍下来，被丢进火里。

所有属于我而不结果子的枝条，他就除掉；而所有结果子的，他就修剪干净，好让它结出更多的果子。藉着我给你们讲的话语，你们已经干净了。你们当住在我里面，我就住在你们里面。枝条如果不留在葡萄树上，就不能由自己结出果子；照样，你们如果不住在我里面，你们也是如此。“我就是葡萄树，你们是枝条。那住在我里面、我也在他里面的，他才结出很多果子，因为没有我，你们什么也不能做。一个人如果不住在我里面，就像枝条被丢在外面枯干了，然后被收集扔进火里焚烧。你们如果住在我里面，而我的话也住在你们里面，那么，凡是你们所愿的，当祈求，就将为你们成就。你们结出很多果子，就表明是我的门徒了；从这一点我父也就得荣耀。

他看见路边有一棵无花果树，就上前去，可是树上除了叶子，什么也找不到。于是他对那棵树说：“你永远不会再结果子了！”那棵无花果树立刻就枯萎了。

就对园丁说：‘你看，一连三年，我在这无花果树上找果子，都找不到。把它砍了吧！何必让它白占土地？’“但是园丁回答，对他说：‘主人，今年再留着它吧。等我在它周围挖掘，施些粪肥，或许它来年真会结出果子，否则，你就砍了它。’”

“你们要提防假先知。他们披着羊皮来到你们这里，里面却是凶残的狼。凭着他们的果子，你们就能认出他们来。难道从荆棘上能收葡萄，从蒺藜中能收无花果吗？同样，好树都结好果子，坏树就结坏果子；好树不能结坏果子，坏树也不能结好果子。所有不结好果子的树都要被砍下来，被丢进火里。因此凭着他们的果子，你们就能认出他们来。
