Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable:
“A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to some tenants, and went away for a long time.

At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.

Muh wɛɛ ka wu tuŋ mwa ye wu lɛme wumu, bo ka bo suŋ wuwɛɛ, bo choosɛ lo wu, bo kuŋ wu, wu tu jiŋ chiaaŋ chiaaŋ.

So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.

‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’

But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.”
And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”

But Jesus looked directly at them and said,
“Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?
18

Tɛdɛ chiyu chinɛ le chi chì muh gwe yu wu chiaafɛ lo, chi gwe yi muh le, chi baajɛ lo mwɛdɛ.”

When the scribes and chief priests realized that Jesus had spoken this parable against them, they sought to arrest Him that very hour. But they were afraid of the people.

Jiso mo wu jɛmɛ lɛ, “Bɛŋ nyâa Kaisa le fiɛɛ fì le fi Kaisa, bɛŋ nyâa Nyo le fì le fi Nyo.”
