10 When the time came, he sent a servant[a] to the tenants, so that (A)they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. (B)But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 11 (C)And (D)he sent another servant. But they also beat and (E)treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed. 12 (F)And he sent yet a third. This one also they wounded and cast out. 13 Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my (G)beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.’ 14 But when the tenants saw him, they said to themselves, (H)‘This is the heir. (I)Let us kill him, so that the inheritance may be ours.’ 15 And they (J)threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? 16 (K)He will (L)come and destroy those tenants and (M)give the vineyard to others.” When they heard this, they said, “Surely not!” 17 But he (N)looked directly at them and said, “What then is this that is written:
18 (P)Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, and when it falls (Q)on anyone, it will crush him.”

10 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants so they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 11 He sent another servant, but that one also they beat and treated shamefully and sent away empty-handed. 12 He sent still a third, and they wounded him and threw him out.
13 “Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my son, whom I love;(A) perhaps they will respect him.’
14 “But when the tenants saw him, they talked the matter over. ‘This is the heir,’ they said. ‘Let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
“What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? 16 He will come and kill those tenants(B) and give the vineyard to others.”
When the people heard this, they said, “God forbid!”
17 Jesus looked directly at them and asked, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written:
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.”(D)
19 The teachers of the law and the chief priests looked for a way to arrest him(E) immediately, because they knew he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people.(F)

10 And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.
11 And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
13 Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.
14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
16 He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.
17 And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
19 And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them.
