Matthew:21:38-45

*
But the farmers ,
when they saw the son ,
said among themselves ,
This is the heir ,
come ,
let us kill him ,
and possess his inheritance .
*
And having seized him ,
they cast him out of the vineyard ,
and killed him .
*
When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes ,
what will he do to those farmers ?
*
They say to him ,
Evil men ,
he will miserably destroy them ,
and will lease out the vineyard to other farmers ,
who will render him the fruits in their seasons .
*
Jesus says to them ,
Did ye never read in the scriptures ,
The stone that those who build rejected ,
this came to be in the head of the corner .
This happened from Lord ,
and it is marvelous in our eyes ?
*
Because of this I say to you ,
that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you ,
and will be given to a nation producing the fruits of it .
*
And he who falls on this stone will be shattered ,
but on whomever it may fall ,
it will grind him to dust .
*
And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables ,
they knew that he spoke about them .
