1 Then Jesus address'd himself to them in this parabolical manner, a certain person planted a vineyard, made a fence about it, clear'd the way for a wine-press, built a tower, and committed it to the care of vine-dressers, while he was travelling abroad. 2 at the time of vintage he sent his servant to the vine-dressers to receive the profits of his vineyard. 3 but they seized on him, and beat him, and sent him home empty. 4 after this he sent another servant to them, him they assaulted with stones and cudgels, and sent him back with contempt. 5 then he sent another, whom they killed: and of several more, some they beat, some they killed.
