Mark 12:2-8

Riverside(i) 2 At the proper season he sent a servant to the grape-growers to receive from them some of the fruits of the vineyard. 3 But they took him and beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4 Again he sent another servant to them, and him they beat over the head and insulted. 5 He sent another, and him they killed. He sent many others, some of whom were beaten and some killed. 6 He had still one, a beloved son. He sent him last to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.' 7 But those grape-growers said to one another, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and the inheritance will be ours.' 8 Then they took him and killed him and threw him out of the vineyard.
