33 “Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who PLANTED A VINEYARD AND PUT A WALL AROUND IT AND DUG A WINE PRESS IN IT, AND BUILT A TOWER, and rented it out to vine-growers and went on a journey. “Hear another parable. There was a master of a house who planted a vineyard and put a fence around it and dug a winepress in it and built a tower and leased it to tenants, and went into another country. “Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place.
34 Now when the harvest time approached, he sent his slaves to the vine-growers to receive his fruit. When the season for fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to get his fruit. When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his fruit.
35 And the vine-growers took his slaves and beat one, and killed another, and stoned a third. And the tenants took his servants and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. “The tenants seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.
36 Again he sent another group of slaves larger than the first; and they did the same thing to them. Again he sent other servants, more than the first. And they did the same to them. Then he sent other servants to them, more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way.
37 But afterward he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ Finally he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ Last of all, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
38 But when the vine-growers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir; come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.’ But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and have his inheritance.’ “But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him and take his inheritance.’
39 And they took him, and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. And they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
40 Therefore when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vine-growers?” When therefore the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?” “Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?”
41 They said to Him, “He will bring those wretches to a wretched end, and will rent out the vineyard to other vine-growers who will pay him the proceeds at the proper seasons.” They said to him, “He will put those wretches to a miserable death and let out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him the fruits in their seasons.” “He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and he will rent the vineyard to other tenants, who will give him his share of the crop at harvest time.”
