Matthew:21:34-43
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now when vintage-time drew near ,
he sent his servants to the vinedressers ,
that they might receive its fruit .
*
And the vinedressers took his servants ,
beat one ,
killed one ,
and stoned another .
*
Again he sent other servants ,
more than the first ,
and they did likewise to them .
*
Then last of all he sent his son to them ,
saying , "
They will respect my son .'
*
But when the vinedressers saw the son ,
they said among themselves , "
This is the heir .
Come ,
let us kill him and seize his inheritance .'
*
So they took him and cast him out of the vineyard and killed him .
* "
Therefore ,
when the owner of the vineyard comes ,
what will he do to those vinedressers ?"
*
They said to Him , "
He will destroy those wicked men miserably ,
and lease his vineyard to other vinedressers who will render to him the fruits in their seasons ."
*
Jesus said to them , "
Have you never read in the Scriptures : "
The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone .
This was the LORD '
s doing ,
And it is marvelous in our eyes '?
* "
Therefore I say to you ,
the kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a nation bearing the fruits of it .
