7 And they answered, that they could not tell from where it was.
8 And Jesus said unto them,
9 Then began he to speak to the people this parable;
10 And at the harvest season he sent a servant to the tenants, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the tenants beat him, and sent him away empty.
11 And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
13 Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will respect him when they see him.
