Matteus 21,38

36 Han sendte andre tjenere, flere enn første gang, men forpakterne behandlet dem på samme måte.

37 Til slutt sendte han sønnen sin til dem, og tenkte: ‘De vil vise respekt for sønnen min.’

Men da forpakterne så sønnen, sa de til hverandre: ‘Dette er arvingen. Kom, la oss drepe ham og ta arven hans.’

39 Så tok de ham, kastet ham ut av vingården og drepte ham.

40 Når nå vingårdens eier kommer, hva vil han gjøre med disse forpakterne?”
