Mark 12:2-8 And he sent a servant to the farmers at the due time, that he might receive from the farmers from the fruit of the vineyard.

BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ² And he sent a servant to the farmers at the due time, that he might receive from the farmers from the fruit of the vineyard. ³ But having taken him, they beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. ⁴ And again he sent to them another servant, and him they struck on the head, and treated shamefully. ⁵ And He sent another, and him they killed; also many others, indeed some beating, and some killing. ⁶ Yet having one beloved son, he sent him to them last, saying, ‘They will have respect for my son.’ ⁷ But those farmers said to themselves, ‘This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ ⁸ And having taken him, they killed him, and cast him forth outside the vineyard.
