42 Jesus saith unto them, Have ye not read in the Scriptures, ?The stone, which the builders rejected; the same is become the head of the corner; this is done by the Lord, and it is wonderful in our eyes.? 43 Therefore I tell you, That the kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and given to a nation, producing the fruits thereof. 44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone, shall be broken in pieces, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder. 45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees heard his parables, they knew that he was speaking concerning them. 46 And they sought to apprehend him; but were afraid of the people, for they held him as a prophet.
