Mark 12:2-5

ISV(i) 2 At the right time, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect from them a share of the produce from the vineyard. 3 But the farmers grabbed the servant, beat him, and sent him back empty-handed. 4 Again, the man sent another servant to them. They beat the servant over the head and treated him shamefully. 5 Then the man sent another, and that one they killed. So it was with many other servants. Some of these they beat, and others they killed.
