Luke 20:9-26

9ThenG1161 he beganG756 to speakG3004 toG4314 the peopleG2992 thisG5026 parableG3850; A certainG5100 manG444 plantedG5452 a vineyardG290, andG2532 letG1554 itG846 outG1554 to vinedressersG1092, andG2532 went into a far countryG589 for a longG2425 timeG5550. 10AndG2532 atG1722 the seasonG2540 he sentG649 a servantG1401 toG4314 the vinedressersG1092, thatG2443 they should giveG1325 himG846 ofG575 the fruitG2590 of the vineyardG290: butG1161 the vinedressersG1092 beatG1194 himG846, and sent him awayG1821 emptyG2756. 11AndG2532 againG4369 he sentG3992 anotherG2087 servantG1401: andG1161 they beatG1194 him alsoG2548, andG2532 treated him shamefullyG818, and sent him awayG1821 emptyG2756. 12AndG2532 againG4369 he sentG3992 the thirdG5154: andG1161 they woundedG5135 himG5126 alsoG2532, and cast him outG1544. 13ThenG1161 saidG2036 the lordG2962 of the vineyardG290, WhatG5101 shall I doG4160? I will sendG3992 myG3450 belovedG27 sonG5207: it may beG2481 when they seeG1492 himG5126 they will reverenceG1788 him . 14ButG1161 when the vinedressersG1092 sawG1492 himG846, they reasonedG1260 amongG4314 themselvesG1438, sayingG3004, ThisG3778 isG2076 the heirG2818: comeG1205, let us killG615 himG846, thatG2443 the inheritanceG2817 may beG1096 oursG2257. 15SoG2532 they castG1544 himG846 out ofG1854 the vineyardG290, and killedG615 him . WhatG5101 thereforeG3767 shallG4160 the lordG2962 of the vineyardG290 doG4160 to themG846? 16He shall comeG2064 andG2532 destroyG622 theseG5128 vinedressersG1092, andG2532 shall giveG1325 the vineyardG290 to othersG243. AndG1161 when they heardG191 it, they saidG2036, mayG1096 that neverG3361 beG1096. 17AndG1161 he beheldG1689 themG846, and saidG2036, WhatG5101 isG2076 thisG5124 thenG3767 that is writtenG1125, The stoneG3037 whichG3739 the buildersG3618 rejectedG593, the sameG3778 is becomeG1096 the headG2776 ofG1519 the cornerG1137? 18WhoeverG3956 shall fallG4098 uponG1909 thatG1565 stoneG3037 shall be brokenG4917; butG1161 onG1909 whomeverG3739G302 it shall fallG4098, it will grindG3039 himG846 to powderG3039. 19AndG2532 the chief priestsG749 andG2532 the scribesG1122 the sameG1722G846 hourG5610 soughtG2212 to layG1911 handsG5495 onG1909 himG846; andG2532 they fearedG5399 the peopleG2992: forG1063 they perceivedG1097 thatG3754 he had spokenG2036 thisG5026 parableG3850 againstG4314 themG846.

20AndG2532 they watchedG3906 him, and sent forthG649 spiesG1455, who pretended to beG5271G1511 righteous menG1342, thatG2443 they might take holdG1949 of hisG846 wordsG3056, that soG1519 they might deliverG3860 himG846 to the powerG746 andG2532 authorityG1849 of the governorG2232. 21AndG2532 they askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, MasterG1320, we knowG1492 thatG3754 thou sayestG3004 andG2532 teachestG1321 rightlyG3723, neitherG3756 acceptest thouG2983 the personG4383 of any, butG235 teachestG1321 the wayG3598 of GodG2316 trulyG225G1909:1 22Is it lawfulG1832 for usG2254 to giveG1325 tributeG5411 to CaesarG2541, orG2228 notG3756? 23ButG1161 he perceivedG2657 theirG846 craftinessG3834, and saidG2036 toG4314 themG846, WhyG5101 tempt yeG3985 meG3165? 24ShowG1925 meG3427 a pennyG1220. WhoseG5101 imageG1504 andG2532 superscriptionG1923 hath itG2192? They answeredG611 andG1161 saidG2036, Caesar’sG2541. 25AndG1161 he saidG2036 to themG846, RenderG591 thereforeG5106 to CaesarG2541 the things which areG3588 Caesar’sG2541, andG2532 to GodG2316 the things which areG3588 God’sG2316. 26AndG2532 they couldG2480 notG3756 take holdG1949 of hisG846 wordsG4487 beforeG1726 the peopleG2992: andG2532 they marvelledG2296 atG1909 hisG846 answerG612, and held their peaceG4601.
