Luke 20:5-13

⁵And they thought with in them selves sayinge: yf we shall saye from heaven: he will saye: why then beleved ye him not?

⁶But and yf we shall saye of men all the people will stone vs. For they be persuaded that Ihon is a Prophet.

⁷And they answered that they coulde not tell whence it was.

⁸And Iesus sayde vnto them: nether tell I you by what auctorite I do these thinges.

⁹Then begane he to put forthe to the people this similitude. A certayne man planted a vyneyarde and let it forthe to fermers and went him selfe into a straunge countre for a greate season.

¹⁰And when the tyme was come he sent a servaut to his tennauntes that they shuld geve him of the frutes of the vyneyarde. And the tennauntes dyd bet him and sent him awaye empty.

¹¹And agayne he sent yet another servaunt. And they dyd bet him and foule entreated him also and sent him awaye emptye.

¹²More over he sent the thyrde to and him they wouded and cast out.

¹³Then sayde the lorde of the vyneyarde: what shall I do? I will sende my deare sonne him peradventure they will reverence when they se him.
