21:34. And when the time of the fruits drew nigh, he sent his servants
to the husbandmen that they might receive the fruits thereof.
21:35. And the husbandmen laying hands on his servants, beat one and
killed another and stoned another.
21:36. Again he sent other servants, more than the former; and they did
to them in like manner.
21:37. And last of all he sent to them his son, saying: They will
reverence my son.
21:38. But the husbandmen seeing the son, said among themselves: This is
the heir: come, let us kill him, and we shall have his inheritance.
21:39. And taking him, they cast him forth out of the vineyard and
killed him.
21:40. When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he
do to those husbandmen?
21:41. They say to him: He will bring those evil men to an evil end and
let out his vineyard to other husbandmen that shall render him the fruit
in due season.
21:42. Jesus saith to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures: The
stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the
corner? By the Lord this has been done; and it is wonderful in our eyes.
21:43. Therefore I say to you that the kingdom of God shall be taken
from you and shall be given to a nation yielding the fruits thereof.
21:44. And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on
whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.
21:45. And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables,
they knew that he spoke of them.
21:46. And seeking to lay hands on him, they feared the multitudes,
because they held him as a prophet.
Matthew Chapter 22
The parable of the marriage feast. Christ orders tribute to be paid to
Caesar. He confutes the Sadducees, shews which is the first commandment
in the law and puzzles the Pharisees.
22:1. And Jesus answering, spoke again in parables to them, saying:
22:2. The kingdom of heaven is likened to a king who made a marriage for
his son.
22:3. And he sent his servants to call them that were invited to the
marriage: and they would not come.
22:4. Again he sent other servants, saying: Tell them that were invited,
Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my beeves and fatlings are killed,
and all things are ready. Come ye to the marriage.
22:5. But they neglected and went their ways, one to his farm and
another to his merchandise.
22:6. And the rest laid hands on his servants and, having treated them
contumeliously, put them to death.
22:7. But when the king had heard of it, he was angry: and sending his
armies, he destroyed those murderers and burnt their city.
22:8. Then he saith to his servants: The marriage indeed is ready; but
they that were invited were not worthy.
22:9. Go ye therefore into the highways; and as many as you shall find,
call to the marriage.
22:10. And his servants going forth into the ways, gathered together all
that they found, both bad and good: and the marriage was filled with
guests.
22:11. And the king went in to see the guests: and he saw there a man
who had not on a wedding garment.
