Luke 20:9 CPDV

⁷  And so they responded that they did not know where it was from.

⁸  And Jesus said to them, 'Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.'

⁹  Then he began to tell the people this parable: 'A man planted a vineyard, and he loaned it to settlers, and he was on a sojourn for a long time.

¹⁰  And in due time, he sent a servant to the farmers, so that they would give to him from the fruit of the vineyard. And they beat him and drove him away, empty-handed.

¹¹  And he continued to send another servant. But beating him and treating him with contempt, they likewise sent him away, empty-handed.
