20:10. And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. Who, beating him, sent him away empty.
20:11. And again he sent another servant. But they beat him also and, treating him reproachfully, sent him away empty.
20:12. And again he sent the third: and they wounded him also and cast him out.
20:13. Then the lord of the vineyard said: What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be, when they see him, they will reverence him.
20:14. Whom, when the husbandmen saw, they thought within themselves, saying: This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
20:15. So casting him out of the vineyard, they killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
20:16. He will come and will destroy these husbandmen and will give the vineyard to others. Which they hearing, said to him: God forbid.
20:17. But he looking on them, said: What is this then that is written, The stone, which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
20:18. Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be bruised: and upon whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
20:19. And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him the same hour: but they feared the people, for they knew that he spoke this parable to them.
