New King James Version
40 “Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers?”
41 (A)They said to Him, (B)“He will destroy those wicked men miserably, (C)and lease his vineyard to other vinedressers who will [a]render to him the fruits in their seasons.”
42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures:
(D)‘The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.
This was the Lord’s doing,
And it is marvelous in our eyes’?
43 “Therefore I say to you, (E)the kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a nation bearing the fruits of it.
