In context

¹⁴But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

¹⁵So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

¹⁶He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.” And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”

¹⁸Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
