37 ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, ὁ ποιήσας τὸ ἔλεος μετ' αὐτοῦ. εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ ἰησοῦς, πορεύου καὶ σὺ ποίει ὁμοίως.
38 ἐν δὲ τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς αὐτὸς εἰσῆλθεν εἰς κώμην τινά: γυνὴ δέ τις ὀνόματι μάρθα ὑπεδέξατο αὐτόν.
39 καὶ τῇδε ἦν ἀδελφὴ καλουμένη μαριάμ, [ἣ] καὶ παρακαθεσθεῖσα πρὸς τοὺς πόδας τοῦ κυρίου ἤκουεν τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ.
40 ἡ δὲ μάρθα περιεσπᾶτο περὶ πολλὴν διακονίαν: ἐπιστᾶσα δὲ εἶπεν, κύριε, οὐ μέλει σοι ὅτι ἡ ἀδελφή μου μόνην με κατέλιπεν διακονεῖν; εἰπὲ οὖν αὐτῇ ἵνα μοι συναντιλάβηται.
41 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ κύριος, μάρθα μάρθα, μεριμνᾷς καὶ θορυβάζῃ περὶ πολλά,
42 ἑνὸς δέ ἐστιν χρεία: μαριὰμ γὰρ τὴν ἀγαθὴν μερίδα ἐξελέξατο ἥτις οὐκ ἀφαιρεθήσεται αὐτῆς.

'The very stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner'

Luke 20:9-18

The Lord said this parable: "A man planted a vineyard, and let it out
to tenants, and went into another country for a long while. When the
time came, he sent a servant to the tenants, that they should give him
some of the fruit of the vineyard; but the tenants beat him, and sent
him away empty-handed. And he sent another servant; him also they
beat and treated shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed. And he
sent yet a third; this one they wounded and cast out. Then the owner
of the vineyard said, 'What shall I do? I will send my beloved son;
it may be they will respect him.' But when the tenants saw him, they
said to themselves, 'This is the heir; let us kill him, that the
inheritance may be ours.' And they cast him out of the vineyard and killed
him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? He will come
and destroy those tenants, and give the vineyard to others." When
they heard this, they said, "God forbid!" But he looked at them and
said, "What then is this that is written: 'The very stone which the
builders rejected has become the head of the corner'? Every one who falls
on that stone will be broken to pieces; but when it falls on any one
it will crush him."
