wmth - Matthew:21:33-39

wmth@Matthew:21:33 @ »Listen to another parable. There was a householder who planted a vineyard, made a fence round it, dug a wine-tank in it, and built a strong lodge; then let the place to vine-dressers, and went abroad.«

wmth@Matthew:21:34 @ When vintage-time approached, he sent his servants to the vine-dressers to receive his share of the grapes;

wmth@Matthew:21:35 @ but the vine-dressers seized the servants, and one they cruelly beat, one they killed, one they pelted with stones.

wmth@Matthew:21:36 @ Again he sent another party of servants more numerous than the first; and these they treated in the same manner.

wmth@Matthew:21:37 @ Later still he sent to them his son, saying, »`They will respect my son.'

wmth@Matthew:21:38 @ »But the vine-dressers, when they saw the son, said to one another,« `Here is the heir: come, let us kill him and get his inheritance.'

wmth@Matthew:21:39 @ »So they seized him, dragged him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
