... believe him? But if we shall say, Of men; [33] we fear that the people will stone us, all of them. And all of them were holding [34] to John, that he was a true prophet. They answered and said unto him, We know [35] not. Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you also by what power I work. What think ye? A man had two sons; and he went to the first, and said unto him, My [36] son, go to-day, and till in the vineyard. And he answered and said, I do not wish [37] to: but finally he repented, and went.[Matthew 21:30] And he went to the other, and said unto [38] him likewise.

But he answered and said, I will not; but afterward he repented, and went. And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir; and went not;” and so on, down to the words, “And whosoever shall fall upon this stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.”[Matthew 21:28-44] Mark and Luke do not mention the parable of the two sons to whom the order was given to go and labour in the vineyard.
