Matthew 21:44-46

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

^44 [a]And whoever falls on this Stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom It falls will be crushed to powder [and It will ^[b]winnow him, ^[c]scattering him like dust].^(A)

⁴⁵ And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard His parables (comparisons, stories used to illustrate and explain), they perceived that He was talking about them.

⁴⁶ And although they were trying to arrest Him, they feared the throngs because they regarded Him as a prophet.
