Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ³³ Hear another parable. There was a certain landlord who planted a vineyard and hedged it around, and dug therein a wine lake, and built a tower, and let it to tenants and went to a distant country. ³⁴ And when the fruit season approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to receive the fruits of it. ³⁵ But the tenants seizing his servants, beat one and killed another, and stoned another. ³⁶ Again he sent other servants in greater number than the first, and they treated them in the same manner. ³⁷ At last he sent to them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. ³⁸ But when the tenants saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir. Come let us kill him and keep possession of his inheritance. ³⁹ So, seizing him, they turned him out of the vineyard and slew him. ⁴⁰ Now when the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to these tenants?
