5 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say, ‘Why1 then did you not believe him?’
6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, afor they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
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.
