14But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.
15And driving him out of the garden they put him to death. Now what will the lord do to these workmen?
16He will come and put them to destruction and give the garden to others. And when he said this, they said, May it not be so.
17But he, looking on them, said, Is it not in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has become the chief stone of the building?
18Everyone falling on that stone will be broken, but the man on whom the stone comes down will be crushed to dust.
19And the chief priests and the scribes made attempts to get their hands on him in that very hour; and they were in fear of the people, for they saw that he had made up this story against them.
20And they kept watch on him, and sent out secret representatives, who were acting the part of good men, in order that they might get something from his words, on account of which they might give him up to the government and into the power of the ruler.
