The Parable of the Vineyard Owner

12 He^(A) began to speak to them in parables: ‘A man planted a vineyard,^(B) put a fence round it, dug out a pit for a winepress, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and went away. ² At harvest time he sent^(C) a servant^(D) to the farmers to collect some of the fruit^(E) of the vineyard from them.
