30 S’adressant à l’autre, il dit la même chose. Et ce fils répondit:Je veux bien, seigneur. Et il n’alla pas.
31 Lequel des deux a fait la volonté du père? Ils répondirent: Le premier. Et Jésus leur dit: Je vous le dis en vérité, les publicains et les prostituées vous devanceront dans le royaume de Dieu.
32 Car Jean est venu à vous dans la voie de la justice, et vous n’avez pas cru en lui. Mais les publicains et les prostituées ont cru en lui; et vous, qui avez vu cela, vous ne vous êtes pas ensuite repentis pour croire en lui.
33 Écoutez une autre parabole.Il y avait un homme, maître de maison, qui planta une vigne. Il l’entoura d’une haie, y creusa un pressoir, et bâtit une tour; puis il l’afferma à des vignerons, et quitta le pays.
34 Lorsque le temps de la récolte fut arrivé, il envoya ses serviteurs vers les vignerons, pour recevoir le produit de sa vigne.
