Mattityahu 21:34-40 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

34. And when the time of the Katsir (Harvest) came, the Baal Bayit sent his servants to the koremim to receive the pri (fruit).

35. And the koremim, having seized his servants, one they beat, another they killed, and another they stoned.

36. And the Baal Bayit sent other servants, more than the rishonim (first ones), and the koremim did the same thing to them.

37. Lemaskana (finally, at last), the Baal Bayit sent to the koremim his Ben, saying, They will respect my Ben.

38. And when the koremim saw the Ben, they said among themselves, This is the Bechor (Firstborn), the Yoresh (Heir). Come, let us kill him and let us take possession of his bechorah (inheritance).

39. And having seized the Ben, they threw the Ben out of the kerem and they killed him.

40. Therefore, when the Baal HaKerem (Owner of the Vineyard) comes, what will he do to those koremim (vine keepers)?
