Coptic New Testament
1On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.

2They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”

3He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:

5They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’

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

9He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.

10At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.

11He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.

12He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.

13The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’

14“But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’

15Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?

16He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”

19The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
