Matthew 21:40-44

40When therefore the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?"

41They said to him, "He will put those wretches to a miserable death and let out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him the fruits in their seasons."

42Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the Scriptures: "'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?

43Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people producing its fruits.

44And the one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; and when it falls on anyone, it will crush him."
