⁶Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.

⁷But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

⁹What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.
