Mace(i)
38 but when the tenants saw the son, they said among themselves, this is the heir, come, let us kill him, and then seize on his inheritance.
39 so seizing upon him, they turn'd him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
40 when the master therefore of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?
41 they answered, he will give those wretches no quarter, and will let out his vineyard to such as shall duly account for the profits thereof.
42 Jesus reply'd, did ye never read in the scriptures, " that very stone which the builders rejected, is become the principal stone of the angle, this the Lord effected, and it is marvellous in our eyes."
43 wherefore I declare to you, the gospel dispensation shall be taken from you, and given to a nation that shall make a proper use thereof.
44 and whosoever shall stumble at this stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, he shall be entirely crush'd.
