Mark 12:1-2

Contemporary English Version

Renters of a Vineyard

(Matthew 21.33-46; Luke 20.9-19)

12 ^(A) Jesus then told them this story:

A farmer once planted a vineyard. He built a wall around it and dug a pit to crush the grapes in. He also built a lookout tower. Then he rented out his vineyard and left the country.

² When it was harvest time, he sent a servant to get his share of the grapes.
