Luke 20:1-10

20:1 - And it so happened that one day, as he was in the temple teaching the people and preaching the gospel, the chief priest came to him accompanied by scribes and elders,

20:2 - They asked him, Where did you get the power and who gave you the right to do these things.

20:3 - And he replied to their question by saying, I am going to ask you something to and you will reply:

20:4 - Did the baptism of John come from heaven, or was it a creation of man?

20:5 - They thought to themselves, If we say, ‘from heaven’, he will say, ‘then why did you not believe him?’

20:6 - If we are to say that it is of men, everyone will attack us as they believe that John was a prophet.

20:7 - They replied that they did not know what place it was from.

20:8 - So Jesus stated, I’m not going to tell you how I perform these feats.

20:9 - Then he told the people this story: There was a man who planted a vineyard. Then he hired someone to care for it while he went on a long trip to a far-away country.

20:10 - And at the end of the growing season, he sent a slave to the farmer to collect the harvest of his vineyard: but the farmer beat him, and drove him away empty-handed.
