Luke 20:9-16

MNT(i) 9 Then he began to tell the people this parable. "There was a man who planted a vineyard, and let it out to vine-dressers, and went to another country for a long time. 10 "At harvest-time he sent a slave to the vine-dressers, to ask them to give him a share of the crop; but the vine-dresser beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 11 "Then he sent another slave; and him also they flogged and handled shamefully and sent him away empty-handed. 12 "Then he sent yet a third, and him to they wounded and threw him out. 13 "Then the master of the vineyard said: "'What shall I do? I will send my beloved Son; it may be that they will reverence him.' 14 "But when the vine-dressers saw him, they reasoned together, saying. 'This is the heir. Let us kill him so that the inheritance may be ours.' 15 "So they turned him out of the vineyard and killed him. "What will the master of the vineyard do to them? 16 "He will come and destroy those vine-dressers, and will give the vineyard to others."
