7 So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8 And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
The Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers
9 Then He began to tell the people this parable: a“A certain man planted a vineyard, leased it to1 vinedressers, and went into a far country for a long time.
10 Now at vintage-time he asent a servant to the vinedressers, that they might give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vinedressers beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
11 Again he sent another servant; and they beat him also, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
13 “Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. Probably they will respect him when they see him.’
14 But when the vinedressers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the aheir. Come, blet us kill him, that the inheritance may be cours.’
15 So they cast him out of the vineyard and akilled him. Therefore what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 He will come and destroy those vinedressers and give the vineyard to aothers.” And when they heard it they said, “Certainly not!”
17 Then He looked at them and said, “What then is this that is written:
a‘The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone’?
a‘The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone’?
