36 Outra vez enviou outros servos, em maior número que os primeiros, mas fizeram-lhes o mesmo.
37 E por último lhes enviou o seu filho, dizendo: “Respeitarão ao meu filho”.
38 Mas quando os lavradores viram o filho, disseram entre si: “Este é o herdeiro. Venhamos matá-lo, e tomemos a sua herança”.
39 Então o agarraram, lançaram-no para fora da vinha, e o mataram.
40 Ora, quando o senhor da vinha chegar, o que fará com aqueles lavradores?
