1 On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.

9 He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.

10 At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.

13 The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’

16 He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”

19 The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
