Matthew 21:38-45

38But when the vine-growersG1092 sawG3708 the sonG5207, they saidG3004 amongG1722 themselvesG1438, ‘ThisG3778 is the heirG2818; comeG1205, let us killG615 him and seizeG2192 his inheritanceG2817.’ 39They tookG2983 him, and threwG1544 him out of the vineyardG290 and killedG615 him. 40ThereforeG3767 whenG3752 the 1ownerG2962 of the vineyardG290 comesG2064, whatG5101 will he doG4160 to thoseG1565 vine-growersG1092?” 41They saidG3004 to Him, “He will bringG622 thoseG846 wretchesG2556 to a wretchedG2560 endG622, and 2will rentG1554 out the vineyardG290 to otherG243 vine-growersG1092 whoG3748 will payG591 him the proceedsG2590 at the proper seasonsG2540.”

42JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “Did you neverG3763 readG314 in the ScripturesG1124, ‘3The stoneG3037 whichG3739 the buildersG3618 rejectedG593, ThisG3778 becameG1096 the chiefG2776 cornerG1137 stone; ThisG3778 cameG1096 about from the LordG2962, And it is marvelousG2298 in our eyesG3788’? 43ThereforeG1223G3778 I sayG3004 to you, the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 will be takenG142 awayG142 from you and givenG1325 to a 4peopleG1484, producingG4160 the fruitG2590 of it. 44And 5he who fallsG4098 on thisG3778 stoneG3037 will be brokenG4917 to piecesG4917; but on whomeverG3739G302 it fallsG4098, it will scatterG3039 him likeG3039 dustG3039.”

45When the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the PhariseesG5330 heardG191 His parablesG3850, they understoodG1097 that He was speakingG3004 aboutG4012 them.
