*
And He began to speak to the people this parable :
A certain man planted a vineyard and let it out to vinedressers .
And [
he ]
went into a far country for a long time .
*
And in season he sent a servant to the vinedressers ,
so that they should give him the fruit of the vineyard .
But the vinedressers beat him and sent [
him ]
away empty .
*
And again he sent another servant .
And they also beat him and treated [
him ]
shamefully ,
and sent [
him ]
away empty .
*
And again he sent a third .
And they also wounded him and cast [
him ]
out .
*
And the lord of the vineyard said ,
What shall I do ?
I will send my beloved son .
It may be that they will respect [
him ]
when they see him .
*
But when the vinedressers saw him ,
they reasoned among themselves ,
saying ,
This is the heir !
Come ,
let us kill him so that the inheritance may be ours .
*
So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed [
him ].
What then shall the lord of the vineyard do to them ?
*
He shall come and destroy these vinedressers and shall give the vineyard to others .
And when they heard this ,
they said ,
Let it not be !
*
And He looked at them and said ,
What then is this which is written ,
The ]
Stone which the builders rejected ,
the same has become [
the ]
Head of [
the ]
corner ?
*
Whoever shall fall on that Stone shall be broken ,
but on whomever it shall fall ,
it will grind him to powder .
