Luke 20:9-18

9And he began to speak to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard and let it out to husbandmen, and left the country for a long time.

10And in the season he sent to the husbandmen a bondman, that they might give to him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen, having beaten him, sent [him] away empty.

11And again he sent another bondman; but they, having beaten him also, and cast insult upon him, sent [him] away empty.

12And again he sent a third; and they, having wounded him also, cast [him] out.

13And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: perhaps when they see him they will respect [him].

14But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; [come,] let us kill him, that the inheritance may become ours.

15And having cast him forth out of the vineyard, they killed [him]. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do to them?

16He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it they said, May it never be!

17But he looking at them said, What then is this that is written, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone?

18Every one falling on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.
