XLVIII.
Parable of the Two Sons.
And they came again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there came to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
2 And they answered Jesus and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
3 But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work today in my vineyard.
4 He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.
5 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said I go, sir: and went not.
6 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
