And he said to them, in parables, A man planted a vineyard and made a hedge about it, and dug a wine-vat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad. And he sent a servant to the husbandmen at the time to receive from the husbandmen of the fruits of the vineyard; and they took him, and beat him, and sent him away empty. read more.
And again he sent another servant to them, and they wounded him on the head, and treated him shamefully. And he sent another, and they killed him; and many others, and they beat some, and killed some. Having yet one beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, They will reverence my son. But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours. And seizing him, they killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard. What will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and let the vineyard to others. Have you not read this Scripture, The stone which the builders rejected, has become the head of a corner; this is from the Lord, and it is wonderful in our eyes? And they sought to take him, and feared the multitude, for they knew that he spoke this parable against them. And they left him, and went away.

Hear another parable: There was a man, a householder, who planted a vineyard, and made a hedge around it, and dug a wine vat in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad. And when the time of the fruits approached he sent his servants to the husbandmen to receive his fruits. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. read more.
Again he sent other servants more than the first; and they treated them in the same manner. And afterwards he sent them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him and take his inheritance. And they took him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. When, therefore, the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those husbandmen? They said to him, He will inflict on those men a miserable death, and let out his vineyard to other husbandmen, who will render him the fruits in their seasons. Jesus said to them, Have you never read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same has become the head of a corner? this is from the Lord, and is wonderful in our eyes? I tell you, therefore, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation yielding its fruits. (Added verse not retained in Sawyer)

And he spoke to the people this parable; A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time. And at the time he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard; and the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.

And he looked at them and said, What, then, is this which is written? The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of a corner; every one that falls on that stone shall be bruised; but on whomsoever it shall fall it shall crush him to atoms.

if we are to-day examined concerning the good work done to the sick man, by what means he has been cured, be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazoraean, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by him has this man stood before you sound. This is the stone rejected by you builders, which has become the head of a corner.

To whom coming, a living stone, rejected indeed by men but approved by God, elect, precious, do you also yourselves be built up living stones, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices well pleasing to God through Jesus Christ, for it is said in the Scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious, and he that believes on him shall not be ashamed. read more.
To you therefore who believe he is precious; but to the disobedient, the stone which the builders rejected has become the head of a corner and a stone of stumbling and rock of offense, who stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.
