Matthew 21:38 in Context — Matthew 21
36 Il envoya encore d’autres serviteurs, en plus grand nombre que les premiers; et les vignerons les traitèrent de la même manière.
37 Enfin, il envoya vers eux son fils, en disant: Ils auront du respect pour mon fils.
38 Mais, quand les vignerons virent le fils, ils dirent entre eux:Voici l’héritier;venez, tuons-le, et emparons-nous de son héritage.
39 Et ils se saisirent de lui, le jetèrent hors de la vigne, et le tuèrent.
40 Maintenant, lorsque le maître de la vigne viendra, que fera-t-il à ces vignerons?
