New Testament for Everyone
17 But Jesus looked round at them and said, “What then does it mean in the Bible when it says,
The very stone the builders refused
now for the corner’s top is used?
18 “Everyone who falls on that stone will be smashed to smithereens; but if it falls on anyone, it will crush them.”
19 The scribes and the chief priests tried to lay hands on him then and there. But they were afraid of the people, because they knew that Jesus had told this parable against them.
