Luke 20:15-26

¹⁵And they cast him out of the vyneyarde and kylled him. Now what shall the Lorde of the vyneyarde do vnto them?

¹⁶He will come and destroye those fermers and will let out his vyneyarde to other. When they hearde that they sayde: God forbyd.

¹⁷And he behelde them and sayde: what meaneth this then that is wrytten: The stone that the bylders refused the same is made the heed corner stone?

¹⁸whosoever stomble at that stone shalbe broken: but on whosoever it faul vpon it wyll grynde him to powder.

¹⁹And the hye Prestes and the Scribes the same howre went about to laye hondes on him but they feared the people. For they perceaved that he had spoken this similitude agaynst them.

²⁰And they watched him and sent forth spies which shuld fayne them selves perfecte to take him in his wordes and to delyvre him vnto the power and auctorite of the debite.

²¹And they axed him sayinge: Master we knowe that thou sayest and teachest ryght nother cosiderest thou eny manes degre but teachest the waye of God truly.

²²Ys it laufull for vs to geve Cesar tribute or no?

²³He perceaved their craftynes and sayde vnto them: why tept ye me?

²⁴Shewe me a peny. Whose ymage and superscripcion hath it? They answered and sayde: Cesars.

²⁵And he sayde vnto them: Geve then vnto Cesar that which belongeth vnto Cesar: and to God that which pertayneth to God.

²⁶And they coulde not reprove his sayinge before the people. But they marvayled at his answer and helde their peace.
