12. So the man sent a third servant. The farmers hurt this servant badly and threw him out.
13. The owner of the vineyard said, ‘What will I do now? I will send my son whom I love very much. Maybe they will respect him!’
14. When they saw the son, they said to each other, ‘This is the owner’s son. This vineyard will be his. If we kill him, then it will be ours!’
15. So the farmers threw the son out of the vineyard and killed him.“What will the owner of this vineyard do?
16. He will come and kill those farmers! Then he will give the vineyard to other farmers.”The people heard this story. They said, “No! Let this never happen!”
17. But Jesus looked at them and said, “Then what does this verse mean:‘The stone that the builders did not wantbecame the cornerstone’? Psalm 118:22
18. Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken. If that stone falls on you, it will crush you!”
