Jonah 4 (AMP)

Jonah Chapter 4 (AMP)

Compare with Version:

Micah

¹ They said to Him, "He will put those despicable men to a miserable end, and rent out the vineyard to other tenants [of good character] who will pay him the proceeds at the proper seasons."

² Jesus asked them, "Have you never read in the Scriptures: 'The [very][6]Stone which the builders rejected and threw away, Has become the chief Cornerstone; This is the Lord's doing, And it is marvelous and wonderful in our eyes'?

³ Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to [another] people who will produce the fruit of it.

⁴ And he who falls on this Stone will be broken to pieces; but he on whom it falls will be crushed."

⁵ When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard His parables, they understood that He was talking about them.

⁶ And although they were trying to arrest Him, they feared the people, because they regarded Jesus as a prophet.

⁷ Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying,

⁸ "The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son.

⁹ And he sent his servants to call those who had [previously] been invited to the wedding feast, but they refused to come.

¹⁰ Then he sent out some other servants, saying, 'Tell those who have been invited, "Look, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fattened calves are butchered and everything is ready; come to the wedding feast."'

¹¹ But they paid no attention [they disregarded the invitation, treating it with contempt] and went away, one to his farm, another to his business.
