Matthew 21:42-46

42Jesus said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures, ‘1The stone which the builders rejected, This became the chief corner stone; This came about from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes’? 43Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a 2people, producing the fruit of it. 44And 3he who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will scatter him like dust.”

45When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard His parables, they understood that He was speaking about them. 46When they sought to seize Him, they 4feared the 5people, because they considered Him to be a 6prophet.
