「你們圍攻一座城久攻不下時，不可用斧頭砍掉那裡的樹木，因為你們可以吃樹上的果子。田間的樹木豈是人，讓你們圍攻嗎？

“你若许久围困、攻打所要取的一座城，就不可举斧子砍坏树木；因为你可以吃那树上的果子，不可砍伐。田间的树木岂是人，叫你糟蹋吗？

“你若围困一座城，需要攻打许多日子才能夺取，就不可用斧头砍坏树木。你可以吃树上的果子，却不可把树砍下来。田间的树木岂是人，让你去围攻的吗？

“如果你圍困一座城，很久才能攻取佔領它，你就不可揮斧破壞那裡的樹木；因為你可以吃樹上的果子，卻不可以砍伐樹木。難道田間的樹木是人，可以被你圍困的嗎？

『你圍困一座城很多日子、向它作戰、要奪取它，不可揮着斧子砍樹木，把城裏的樹木都摧毁掉；你可以喫樹上的果子，卻不可以砍樹。難道田野的樹木是人、能在你面前入圍困範圍內麼？

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、

爾環城而攻、為日已久、欲取其地、勿以斧砍樹、夫樹結果、足以養人、毋得砍伐、以製攻城之器、

爾欲取城、圍而攻之、為日已久、毋以斧伐樹、因爾食其果、不可伐之、田之樹豈亦為爾所攻乎、或作爾所欲取之城環而攻之為日已久毋以斧伐樹因田間之樹結果養人者爾可食不可砍伐以製攻城之具

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 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!

埃及人苦待我們，壓迫我們，強迫我們做奴隸。

現在斧頭已經放在樹根上了，不結好果子的樹都要被砍下，丟在火裡。

屬於我的枝子如果不結果子，祂就把它剪掉；如果結果子，祂便修剪它，讓它結更多的果子。我對你們所講的道已經使你們潔淨了。你們要常在我裡面，我就常在你們裡面。枝子若離開葡萄樹，就不能結果子。同樣，你們若不常在我裡面，也不能結果子。「我是葡萄樹，你們是枝子。常在我裡面的，我也常在他裡面，他就會多結果子，因為你們離開了我什麼都不能做。不常在我裡面的人就像丟在外面枯乾的枝子，最後只有被人拾起來丟在火裡燒掉。如果你們常在我裡面，我的話也常在你們裡面，無論你們求什麼，都會得到應允。你們多結果子，證明自己是我的門徒，就會給我父帶來榮耀。

祂看見路旁有一棵無花果樹，便走過去，卻發現除了葉子外什麼也沒有。祂對那棵樹說：「你將再不會結果子！」那棵樹立刻枯萎了。

他對園丁說，『三年來，我一直盼望它結果子，它卻一個也沒結。把它砍了，免得白佔土地。』「園丁請求說，『主人，再留它一年吧！讓我在它四周鬆土、施肥，明年如果結了果子就留它，否則再砍掉它。』」

「你們要提防假先知，他們披著羊皮到你們當中，骨子裡卻是凶殘的狼。你們可以憑他們結的果子認出他們。荊棘怎能結出葡萄呢？蒺藜怎能長出無花果呢？同樣，好樹結好果子，壞樹結壞果子；好樹結不出壞果子，壞樹也結不出好果子。凡不結好果子的樹，都要被砍下來丟在火裡。因此，你們可以憑他們結的果子認出他們。
