Matthew 21:33-45

33HearG191 another parableG3850: There wasG1510 a manG444 that wasG1510 a householder, who plantedG5452 a vineyardG290, and set a hedge about it, and digged a winepressG3025 in it, and builtG3618 a towerG4444, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country. 34And whenG3753 the seasonG2540 of the fruitsG2590 drew near, he sentG649 his servantsG1401 to the husbandmen, to receiveG2983 his fruitsG2590. 35And the husbandmen tookG2983 his servantsG1401, and beatG1194 oneG3739, and killedG615 another, and stoned another. 36AgainG3825, he sentG649 otherG243 servantsG1401 moreG4183 than the firstG4413: and they did unto them in like manner. 37But afterward he sentG649 unto them his sonG5207, sayingG3004, They will reverence my sonG5207. 38But the husbandmen, when they sawG3708 the sonG5207, saidG3004 among themselves, This isG1510 the heirG2818; comeG1205, let us killG615 him, and take his inheritanceG2817. 39And they tookG2983 him, and castG1544 him forth out of the vineyardG290, and killedG615 him. 40WhenG3752 thereforeG3767 the lordG2962 of the vineyardG290 shall comeG2064, what will he do unto those husbandmen? 41They sayG3004 unto him, He will miserably destroyG622 those miserable men, and will let out the vineyardG290 unto otherG243 husbandmen, who shall renderG591 him the fruitsG2590 in their seasonsG2540. 42JesusG2424 saith unto them, Did ye neverG3763 readG314 in the scripturesG1124,

The stoneG3037 which the builders rejectedG593,The sameG846 wasG1510 made the headG2776 of the cornerG1137;This wasG1510 from the LordG2962,And it isG1510 marvellous in our eyesG3788?

43Therefore sayG3004 I unto you, The kingdomG932 of GodG2316 shall be takenG142 awayG142 from you, and shall be givenG1325 to a nationG1484 bringing forth the fruitsG2590 thereof. 44And he that falleth on this stoneG3037 shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust. 45And when the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the PhariseesG5330 heardG191 his parablesG3850, they perceived that he spake of them.
