| Matthew 21:36 | Again he sent another party of servants more numerous than the first; and these they treated in the same manner. | Again, he sent other servants more in number than the first: and they did the same to them. | Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them in like manner. |
| Matthew 21:37 | Later still he sent to them his son, saying, "`They will respect my son.' | But after that he sent his son to them, saying, They will have respect for my son. | But afterward he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. |
| Matthew 21:38 | "But the vine-dressers, when they saw the son, said to one another, "`Here is the heir: come, let us kill him and get his inheritance.' | But when the workmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death and take his heritage. | But the husbandmen, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take his inheritance. |
| Matthew 21:39 | "So they seized him, dragged him out of the vineyard, and killed him. | And they took him and, driving him out of the vine-garden, put him to death. | And they took him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him. |

| Matthew 21:41 | "He will put the wretches to a wretched death," was the reply, "and will entrust the vineyard to other vine-dressers who will render the produce to him at the vintage season." | They say to him, He will put those cruel men to a cruel death, and will let out the vine-garden to other workmen, who will give him the fruit when it is ready. | They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will let out the vineyard unto other husbandmen, who shall render him the fruits in their seasons. |
| Matthew 21:42 | "Have you never read in the Scriptures," said Jesus, "`The Stone which the builders rejected has been made the Cornerstone: this Cornerstone came from the Lord, and is wonderful in our eyes'? | Jesus says to them, Did you never see in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has been made the chief stone of the building: this was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes? | Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes? |
| Matthew 21:43 | "That, I tell you, is the reason why the Kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and given to a nation that will exhibit the power of it. | For this reason I say to you, The kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and will be given to a nation producing the fruits of it. | Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. |
| Matthew 21:44 | He who falls on this stone will be severely hurt; but he on whom it falls will be utterly crushed." | Any man falling on this stone will be broken, but he on whom it comes down will be crushed to dust. | And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust. |
| Matthew 21:45 | After listening to His parables the High Priests and the Pharisees perceived that He was speaking about them; | And when his stories came to the ears of the chief priests and the Pharisees, they saw that he was talking of them. | And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them. |
| Matthew 21:46 | but though they were eager to lay hands upon Him, they were afraid of the people, for by them He was regarded as a Prophet. | And though they had a desire to take him, they were in fear of the people, because in their eyes he was a prophet. | And when they sought to lay hold on him, they feared the multitudes, because they took him for a prophet. |
