The Parable of the Tenant Farmers in the Vineyard
9 And he began to tell the people this parable: “A man[a] planted a vineyard, and leased it to tenant farmers, and went on a journey for a long time. 10 And at the proper time he sent a slave to the tenant farmers, so that they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenant farmers sent him away empty-handed after[b] beating him.[c] 11 And he proceeded to send another slave, but they beat and dishonored that one also, and[d] sent him[e] away empty-handed.
