Mark 12:4-6

4So the man sent another servant to them. They hit the servant on the head and treated him shamefully.

5The man sent another, and they killed that servant. Then he sent many other servants. Some of these they beat, and others they killed.

6“He had one more person to send. That person was his son, whom he loved. Finally, he sent his son to them. He thought, ‘They will respect my son.’
