That the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people came to him and said, Make clear to us by what authority you do these things and who gave you this authority.

the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?"

Luke 20:5

So they debated the matter with one another. "If we say `Heavenly,'" they argued, "he will say, `Why did you not believe him?'

And they said among themselves, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why did you not have faith in him?

They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why didn't you believe him?'

Luke 20:6

And if we say, `human,' the people will all stone us; for they are thoroughly convinced that John was a Prophet."

Luke 20:9

Then He proceeded to speak a parable to the people. "There was a man," He said, "who planted a vineyard, let it out to vine-dressers, and went abroad for a considerable time.

And he gave the people this story: A man made a vine-garden and gave the use of it to some field-workers and went into another country for a long time.

He began to tell the people this parable. "A man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.

At vintage-time he sent a servant to the vine-dressers, for them to give him a share of the crop; but the vine-dressers beat him cruelly and sent him away empty-handed.

And at the right time he sent a servant to the workers to get part of the fruit from the vines; but the workmen gave him blows and sent him away with nothing.

At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him, and sent him away empty.

Luke 20:11

Then he sent a second servant; and him too they beat and ill treated and sent away empty-handed.

And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.

He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.

Then again he sent a third; and this one also they wounded and drove away.

And he sent a third, and they gave him wounds and put him out.

He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.

The lord of the vineyard said, 'What will I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.'

Luke 20:14

"But when the vine-dressers saw him, they discussed the matter with one another, and said, "`This is the heir: let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'

But 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.

But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'

Luke 20:15

"So they turned him out of the vineyard and murdered him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

And driving him out of the garden they put him to death. Now what will the lord do to these workmen?

They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?

Luke 20:16

He will come and put these vine-dressers to death, and give the vineyard to others." "God forbid!" exclaimed the hearers.

He 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.

He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others." When they heard it, they said, "God forbid!"

Luke 20:17

He looked at them and said, "What then does that mean which is written, "`The Stone which the builders rejected has been made the cornerstone'?

But 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?

But he looked at them, and said, "Then what is this that is written, 'The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the chief cornerstone?'

Luke 20:18

Every one who falls on that stone will be severely hurt, but on whomsoever it falls, he will be utterly crushed."

Everyone falling on that stone will be broken, but the man on whom the stone comes down will be crushed to dust.

"Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whoever it falls on to dust."

Luke 20:19

At this the Scribes and the High Priests wanted to lay hands on Him, then and there; only they were afraid of the people. For they saw that in this parable He had referred to them.

The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him that very hour, but they feared the people for they knew He had spoken this parable against them.

Luke 20:20

So, after impatiently watching their opportunity, they sent spies who were to act the part of good and honest men, that they might fasten on some expression of His, so as to hand Him over to the ruling power and the Governor's authority.

And 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.

They watched him, and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.

They asked him, "Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren't partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.

Luke 20:25

"Pay therefore," He replied, "what is Caesar's to Caesar and what is God's to God."

And he said, Then give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.
