Matthew 21:34-37 ▼

34 And when the harvest time approached, he sent his slaves to the vine-growers to receive his fruit.

35 And the vine-growers took his slaves and beat one, killed another, and stoned another.

36 Again, he sent other slaves, more than the first; and they did the same things to them.

37 But afterward he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
