And He began to tell the people this parable: "A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to vine-growers, and went on a journey for a long time.
"At the harvest time he sent a slave to the vine-growers, so that they would give him some of the produce of the vineyard; but the vine-growers beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
"And he proceeded to send another slave; and they beat him also and treated him shamefully and sent him away empty-handed.
"And he proceeded to send a third; and this one also they wounded and cast out.
"The owner of the vineyard said, 'What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.'
