7 Alors ils répondirent qu’ils ne savaient d’où il venait.

8 Et Jésus leur dit: Moi non plus, je ne vous dirai pas par quelle autorité je fais ces choses.

9 Il se mit ensuite à dire au peuple cette parabole: Un homme planta une vigne, l’afferma à des vignerons, et quitta pour longtemps le pays.

10 Au temps de la récolte, il envoya un serviteur vers les vignerons, pour qu’ils lui donnent une part du produit de la vigne. Les vignerons le battirent, et le renvoyèrent à vide.

11 Il envoya encore un autre serviteur; ils le battirent, l’outragèrent, et le renvoyèrent à vide.
