I will also forbid the clouds, that they shall not rain upon it. ⁷ As for the vineyard of the LORD of Hosts, it is the house of Israel, and whole Judah his fair planting.

³³ "Hearken another similitude. There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and made a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a strange country: ³⁴ And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive the fruits of it, ³⁵ and the husbandmen caught his servants, and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. ³⁶ Again, he sent other servants more than the first, and they served them likewise. ³⁷ But last of all, he sent unto them his own son, saying, 'They will fear my son.' ³⁸ But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, 'This is the heir: come on, let us kill him, and let us take his inheritance, to ourselves.' ³⁹ And they caught him, and thrust him out of the vineyard, and slew him. ⁴⁰ When the Lord of the vineyard cometh, what will he do with those husbandmen?" ⁴¹ They said unto him, He will cruelly destroy those evil persons; and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall deliver him the fruit at times convenient. ⁴² Jesus said unto them, "Did ye never read in the scriptures? 'The same stone which the builders refused, the same is set in the principal part of the corner: this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes.' ⁴³ Therefore say I unto you, the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and shall be given to the Gentiles, which shall bring forth the fruits of it. ⁴⁴ And whosoever shall fall on this stone, he shall be alto broken. But on whosoever it shall fall upon, it will grind him to powder." ⁴⁵ And when the chief priests and Pharisees heard these similitudes, they perceived that he spake of them. ⁴⁶ And they went about to lay hands on him, but they feared the people, because they took him as a prophet.

⁹ Then began he to put forth to the people this similitude, "A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to farmers, and went himself into a strange country for a great season. ¹⁰ And when the time was come, he sent a servant to his tenants, that they should give him of the fruits of the vineyard. And the tenants did beat him: and sent him away empty. ¹¹ And again he ceased not thereby but sent yet another servant. And they did beat him, and foul entreated him also, and sent him away empty. ¹² Moreover, he sent the third, too: And him they wounded, and cast him out. ¹³ Then said the Lord of the vineyard, 'What shall I do? I will send my dear son, him peradventure they will reverence, when they see him.' ¹⁴ But when the farmers saw him, they thought in themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.' ¹⁵ And they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. Now what shall the Lord of the vineyard do unto them? ¹⁶ He will come and destroy those farmers, and will let out his vineyard to others." When they heard that, they said, "God forbid." ¹⁷ And he beheld them and said, "What meaneth this then that is written, 'The stone that the builders refused, the same is made the head cornerstone?' ¹⁸ Whosoever stumble at that stone, shall be broken: but on whosoever it fall upon, it will grind him to powder."
