Matthew 21:33-36

33“Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard and put a wall around it and dug a wine press in it, and built a tower, and rented it out to tenant farmers and went on a journey [to another country].

34When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to get his [share of the] fruit.

35But the tenants took his servants and beat one, and killed another, and stoned a third.

36Again he sent other servants, more than the first time; and they treated them the same way.
