Mark:12:1-12

*
And he began to them in parables to talk :
A vineyard planted a man ,
and placed around a hedge ,
and dug a wine
vat ,
and built a tower ;
and let out it to husbandmen ,
and went abroad .
*
And he sent to the husbandmen in the season a slave ,
that from the husbandmen ,
he might receive of the fruit of the vineyard .
*
They but taking him ,
they flayed ,
and sent away empty .
*
And again he sent to them another slave ;
and this pelting with stones they wounded of the head ,
and sent away having dishonored .
*
And another he sent ;
and this they killed ;
and many others ,
some indeed flaying ,
some but killing .
*
Yet therefore one son having ,
beloved of himself he sent and him to them last ,
saying :
That they will regard the son of me .
*
Those but the husbandmen said to themselves :
That this is the heir ;
come ,
we may kill him ,
and of us shall be the inheritance .
*
And having taken him ,
they killed ,
and cast out of the vineyard .
*
What therefore will do the lord of the vineyard ?
He will come and destroy the husbandmen ,
and will give the vineyard to others .
*
Not even the writing this have you read :
A stone which rejected those building ,
this was made into a head of a corner ;
*
by a Lord was done this ,
and it is wonderful in eyes of us ?
*
And they sought him to seize ,
but they feared the crowd ;
they knew for ,
that to them the parable he spoke .
And leaving him ,
they went away .
