8 So they took the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
9 “So what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those farmers and will give the vineyard to other farmers.
10 Surely you have read this Scripture:‘The stone that the builders rejectedbecame the cornerstone.

13 Later, the Jewish leaders sent some Pharisees and Herodians to Jesus to trap him in saying something wrong.
