 33 Hear ye another parable. There was a man an householder, who planted a vineyard, and made a hedge round about it, and dug in it a press, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen; and went into a strange country.
Aliam parabolam audite : Homo erat paterfamilias, qui plantavit vineam, et sepem circumdedit ei, et fodit in ea torcular, et aedificavit turrim, et locavit eam agricolis, et peregre profectus est.

 34 And when the time of the fruits drew nigh, he sent his servants to the husbandmen that they might receive the fruits thereof.
Cum autem tempus fructuum appropinquasset, misit servos suos ad agricolas, ut acciperent fructus ejus.

 35 And the husbandmen laying hands on his servants, beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
Et agricolae, apprehensis servis ejus, alium ceciderunt, alium occiderunt, alium vero lapidaverunt.

 36 Again he sent other servants more than the former; and they did to them in like manner.
Iterum misit alios servos plures prioribus, et fecerunt illis similiter.

 37 And last of all he sent to them his son, saying: They will reverence my son.
Novissime autem misit ad eos filium suum, dicens : Verebuntur filium meum.

 38 But the husbandmen seeing the son, said among themselves: This is the heir: come, let us kill him, and we shall have his inheritance.
Agricolae autem videntes filium dixerunt intra se : Hic est haeres, venite, occidamus eum, et habebimus haereditatem ejus.

 39 And taking him, they cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.
Et apprehensum eum ejecerunt extra vineam, et occiderunt.

 40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to those husbandmen?
Cum ergo venerit dominus vineae, quid faciet agricolis illis?

 41 They say to him: He will bring those evil men to an evil end; and will let out his vineyard to other husbandmen, that shall render him the fruit in due season.
Aiunt illi : Malos male perdet : et vineam suam locabit aliis agricolis, qui reddant ei fructum temporibus suis.

 42 Jesus saith to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures: The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? By the Lord this has been done; and it is wonderful in our eyes.
Dicit illis Jesus : Numquam legistis in Scripturis : Lapidem quem reprobaverunt aedificantes, hic factus est in caput anguli : a Domino factum est istud, et est mirabile in oculis nostris?

 43 Therefore I say to you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and shall be given to a nation yielding the fruits thereof.
Ideo dico vobis, quia auferetur a vobis regnum Dei, et dabitur genti facienti fructus ejus.

 44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.
Et qui ceciderit super lapidem istum, confringetur : super quem vero ceciderit, conteret eum.

 45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they knew that he spoke of them.
Et cum audissent principes sacerdotum et pharisaei parabolas ejus, cognoverunt quod de ipsis diceret.

 46 And seeking to lay hands on him, they feared the multitudes: because they held him as a prophet.
Et quaerentes eum tenere, timuerunt turbas : quoniam sicut prophetam eum habebant.
