Mark 12:1-11
\n1 Then he began to speak to them in parables. \u201cA man planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a pit for the wine press, and built a watchtower; then he leased it to tenants and went to another country. 2 When the season came, he sent a slave to the tenants to collect from them his share of the produce of the vineyard. 3 But they seized him, and beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. 4 And again he sent another slave to them; this one they beat over the head and insulted. 5 Then he sent another, and that one they killed. And so it was with many others; some they beat, and others they killed. 6 He had still one other, a beloved son. Finally he sent him to them, saying, \u2018They will respect my son.\u2019 7 But those tenants said to one another, \u2018This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.\u2019 8 So they seized him, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. 9 What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants and give the vineyard to others. 10 Have you not read this scripture: <\/p>\n

\n\u2018The stone that the builders rejected
\nhas become the cornerstone;
\n11 this was the Lord’s doing,
\nand it is amazing in our eyes\u2019?\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
