[28] But what think A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in vineyard. [29] He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went. [30] And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not. [31] Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say That the publicans and the harlots into the kingdom of God before [32] For John came unto in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him. [33] Hear another parable: a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: [34] And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. [35] And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. [36] Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. [37] But last of all he sent unto them son, saying, They will reverence son. [38] But when the husbandmen the son, they said among themselves, This the heir; come, let us kill him, and on his inheritance. [39] And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew [40] When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? [41] They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. [42] Jesus saith unto them, never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and marvellous in eyes? [43] Therefore say I The kingdom of God shall be taken from and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. [44] And whosoever shall fall on stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, him to powder. [45] And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
