42 Jesus reply'd, did ye never read in the scriptures, " that very stone which the builders rejected, is become the principal stone of the angle, this the Lord effected, and it is marvellous in our eyes." 43 wherefore I declare to you, the gospel dispensation shall be taken from you, and given to a nation that shall make a proper use thereof. 44 and whosoever shall stumble at this stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, he shall be entirely crush'd. 45 When the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he meant them. 46 and they endeavoured to seize him, but were afraid of the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.
