Leased vineyard parable

Click LOGO for full text of Spirit led podcast reflecting our life in Christ poetically translated from Scripture one line at a time.

THE GOSPEL OF LUKE CHAPTER 20 9 THRU 19

9 Then he proceeded to tell the people this parable. “[A] man planted a vineyard, leased it to tenant farmers, and then went on a journey for a long time. 10 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenant farmers to receive some of the produce of the vineyard. But they beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed. 11 So he proceeded to send another servant, but him also they beat and insulted and sent away empty-handed. 12 Then he proceeded to send a third, but this one too they wounded and threw out. 13 The owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I shall send my beloved son; maybe they will respect him.’ 14 But when the tenant farmers saw him they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him that the inheritance may become ours.’ 15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What will the owner of the vineyard do to them? 16 He will come and put those tenant farmers to death and turn over the vineyard to others.” When the people heard this, they exclaimed, “Let it not be so!” 17 But he looked at them and asked, “What then does this scripture passage mean:
‘The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’? 18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be dashed to pieces; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.” 19 The scribes and chief priests sought to lay their hands on him at that very hour, but they feared the people, for they knew that he had addressed this parable to them.

Join us in our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Prayer intentions. Silence for the prayers of others. In Jesus Name. Amen. Precious Blood

**Leased vineyard parable**

Leased vineyard parable
Farmer tenant secured
Long journey bearable
Time harvest obscured

Produce requested servant
Beat sent empty
Servant other sent
Empty insulted beat

Third sent proceeded
Threw beaten wounded
Do what conceded
Son beloved occluded

Him respect they
Him kill responded
Heir his this
Ours inheritance corresponded

Owner do what
Jesus asked goodhearted
Death farmers strut
Others vineyard started

Pieces dashed stone faller
Falls on anyone crushed
Rejected built cornerstone mauler
Parable directed priests hushed

People feared scribe crawlers
