Matthew 21:33-40

Living_Oracles(i) 33 Hear another parable: A landlord planted a vineyard, and hedged it round, and digged a wine press in it, and built a tower; and having farmed it out, went abroad. 34 When the vintage approached, he sent his servants to the husbandmen to receive the fruits. 35 But they seized his servants, beat one, drove away with stones another, and killed another. 36 Again he sent other servants more respectable; but they received the same treatment; 37 finally he sent his son to them: for he said, They will reverence my son. 38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir, come, let us kill him, and keep possession of his inheritance. 39 Then they seized him, thrust him out of the vineyard, and killed him. 40 When, therefore, the proprietor of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those husbandmen?
