- A vineyard:
- "Thou hast broughtª° a vineª out of Egypt:ª¹ thou hast cast outª° the heathen,ª and plantedª° it. ... Turn us again,ª° O LORDª Godª of hosts,ª cause thy faceª to shine;ª° and we shall be saved.ª°" {Psa 80:8-19} + "Yet I¹ had plantedª° thee a noble vine,ª wholly¹ a rightª seed:ª how¹ then art thou turnedª° into the degenerate¹ plant² of a strangeª vineª unto me?" {Jer 2:21} + "Hearª° anotherª parable:ª There wasª° a certainª² householder,ª whichª plantedª° a vineyard,ª andª hedged² it² round about,ª°¹¹ andª diggedª° a winepressª inª it,ª andª builtª° a tower,ª andª let²° it² outª°¹ to husbandmen,ª andª went into a far country:ª° ... Butª when they soughtª° to lay handsª° on him,ª they fearedª° the¹ multitude,ª becauseª they tookª° himª forª a prophet.ª" {Mtt 21:33-46} + "Thenª began¹ he²° to speakª° toª the¹ peopleª thisª parable;ª A certainª manª plantedª° a vineyard,ª andª let²° it² forthª°¹ to husbandmen,ª andª went into a far countryª° for a longª time.ª ... Whosoeverª shall fallª° uponª thatª stoneª shall be broken;ª° butª onª whomsoeverªª it shall fall,ª° it will grind²° him² to powder.ª°¹" {Lke 20:9-18}
