33 The Parable of the Tenants“Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a fence around it, dug a pit for its winepress, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and went on a journey.
34 When the harvest time was near, he sent his slaves to the tenants to collect his portion of the crop.
35 But the tenants seized his slaves, beat one, killed another, and stoned another.
36 Again he sent other slaves, more than the first, and they treated them the same way.
37 Finally he sent his son to them, saying,‘They will respect my son.’
