The King James Version Bible

Matthew 21:34-38

  1. And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

  2. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

  3. Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

  4. But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.

  5. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
