21:33 The parable about the evil tenants

(Mark 12:1-12, Luke 20:9-19)

33[ref]Listen to another parable: A landowner planted a vineyard and fenced it, and he carved a wine-press in it and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to tenant farmers and moved away. 34At harvest time, he sent some of his slaves to the tenant farmers to bring back his share of the harvest. 35However, the tenants grabbed his slaves and beat them. They killed some and threw rocks at others. 36So the owner sent a larger group of slaves, but the tenants did the same things to them.

37Next he sent his son because he thought his son would have influence over them. 38But when the tenant farmers saw the son, they thought, ‘Hey, this is the heir of the estate. If we kill him, then the inheritance will be ours.’ 39So they grabbed the son, dragged him out of the vineyard, and killed him there outside.

40Now, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what do you think he’ll do to those tenant farmers?

41“He’ll brutally destroy those wicked tenants,” they answered, “then he’ll rent the vineyard out to other tenant farmers who will give him his share of the harvest.”

42[ref]Then Yeshua said to them, “Haven’t you ever read in the scriptures:

‘The stone which the builders rejected,

this would become the cornerstone.

This one came from the master,

and it was amazing to see.’

43Because of that, I’m telling you that God’s kingdom will be taken away from all of you and be given to a people who will produce a harvest. 44And anyone who falls down onto this stone will be shattered, but anyone that this stone falls on will be totally pulverised.

45When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard those parables, they knew that he was talking about them. 46They attempted to arrest him, but couldn’t because they knew that the crowds believed him to be a prophet from God.


33Hear another parable:
a_man was a_home_owner, who planted a_vineyard, and put_ a_fence _around to_it:
and dug a_wine-press in it, and built a_tower, and rented_ it _out to_tenant_farmers, and travelled.
34And when the season of_the fruits neared, he_sent_out the slaves of_him to the tenant_farmers, to_receive the fruits of_him.
35And the tenant_farmers having_taken the slaves of_him, on_one_hand that they_beat, on_the_other_hand that they_killed_off, on_the_other_hand that they_threw_stones.
36Again he_sent_out other slaves, more than_the first, and they_did likewise to_them.
37But later he_sent_out the son of_him to them saying:
They_will_be_being_swayed by_the son of_me.
38But the tenant_farmers having_seen the son, said among themselves:
This is the heir, come, we_may_kill_ him _off and we_may_have the inheritance of_him.
39And having_taken him, they_throw_out him out the vineyard and they_killed_ him _off.
40Therefore whenever the master of_the vineyard may_come, what he_will_be_doing to_ the those _tenant_farmers?
41They_are_saying to_him:
He_will_be_destroying them evil ones miserably, and will_be_renting_out the vineyard to_other tenant_farmers, who will_be_giving_back to_him the fruits in the seasons of_them.
42The Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) is_saying to_them:
You_all_ never _read in the scriptures:
The_stone which the ones building rejected, this was_become for the_head of_the_corner, this became from the_master, and it_is marvellous in the_eyes of_us?
43Because_of this I_am_saying to_you_all, that the kingdom of_ the _god will_be_being_taken_away from you_all and it_will_be_being_given to_a_people producing the fruits of_it.
44And the one having_fallen on the this stone, will_be_being_shattered, on but whomever wishfully it_may_fall, it_will_be_pulverizing him.
45And the chief_priests and the Farisaios_party having_heard the parables of_him, they_knew that he_is_speaking about them.
46And seeking to_apprehend him, they_were_afraid the crowds, because they_were_having him for a_prophet.
