Luke 20:9-15

Haweis(i) 9 Then he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard, and delivered it to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long while. 10 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that they might give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat, and sent him away empty. 11 And he again sent another servant: and him also they beat, and treating him with indignity, sent him away empty. 12 And he sent yet a third: and him they also wounded, and cast out. 13 Then said the master of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: probably when they see him, they will shew him respect. 14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be our own. 15 So casting him out of the vineyard, they slew him. What then will the master of the vineyard do with these men?
