Mark 12:2-8 And when the grape harvest season came, the owner of the farm sent a slave to the tenant farmers asking them to deliver the grape crop to him.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ² And when the [grape harvest] season came, the owner of the farm sent a slave to the tenant farmers asking them to deliver the grape crop [to him]. ³ But they took the slave and beat him and sent him away empty handed. ⁴ Again the owner of the farm sent another slave, whom they wounded in the head and shamefully abused. ⁵ He sent [still] another slave, whom they killed. He continued sending many more slaves; they beat some and killed others. ⁶ The owner had one more person [left to send], his dearly loved son. [So] he sent him to them last of all, reasoning to himself, ‘ [Surely] they will treat my son with respect.’ ⁷ But the tenant farmers said to one another, ‘This is the heir [to the vineyard]. Come on, let us kill him and then the inheritance will be ours.’ ⁸ So they took him and killed him and threw his body out of the vineyard.
