The Parable of the Tenants

33 ¹"Hear another parable. There was a master of a house who planted ²a vineyard ³and put a fence around it and dug a winepress in it and built a tower and ⁴leased it to tenants, and ⁵went into another country.

34 When the season for fruit drew near, he sent his servants^a to the tenants ⁶to get his fruit.

35 ⁷And the tenants took his servants and beat one, killed another, and ⁸stoned another.

36 ⁹Again he sent other servants, more than the first. And they did the same to them.

37 Finally he sent his son to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.'

38 But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, ¹⁰'This is the heir. Come, ¹¹let us kill him and have his inheritance.'

39 And they took him and ¹²threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.

40 ¹³When therefore the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?"

41 They said to him, ¹⁴"He will put those wretches to a miserable death and ¹⁵let out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him the fruits in their seasons."

42 Jesus said to them, ¹⁶"Have you never read in the Scriptures: ¹⁷"'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;^b this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?

43 Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God ¹⁸will be taken away from you and given to a people ¹⁹producing its fruits.

44 And ²⁰the one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; and ²¹when it falls on anyone, it will crush him."^c

45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he was speaking about them.

46 And ²²although they were seeking to arrest him, ²³they feared the crowds, because they held him to be ²⁴a prophet.
