katapi HOME Matthew 21:28-32 - The Parable of the Two Sons  Mt.21.28-32 (Jerusalem)

21 28 'But what do you think about this? A man had two sons. He went to the first, and said, "My boy, go and work today in the vineyard." 21 29 "I will, sir", the boy replied; but he never went. 21 30 The father came to the second and said the same. "I will not", he replied, but afterwards he changed his mind and went. 21 31 Which of these two did as his father wished?' 'The second', they said. Then Jesus answered, 'I tell you this: tax-gatherers and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you. 21 32 For when John came to show you the right way to live, you did not believe him, but the tax-gatherers and prostitutes did; and even when you had seen that, you did not change your minds and believe him.
