Easy-to-Read Version
17 But Jesus looked into their eyes and said, “Then what does this verse mean:
‘The stone that the builders refused to accept
became the cornerstone’? (A)
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken. If that stone falls on you, it will crush you!”
19 When the teachers of the law and the leading priests heard this story, they knew it was about them. So they wanted to arrest Jesus right then, but they were afraid of what the people would do.
