35 But the tenant farmers took the farm owner’s slaves and beat one, killed another and stoned another.
36 The owner of the farm then sent additional slaves and they were treated the same way.
37 Then later on he sent his own son to the tenant farmers, saying, ‘[Surely] they will treat my son with respect.’
38 But when the tenant farmers saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir [to the vineyard]. Come on, let us kill him so we can take over his inheritance.’
39 So, they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
