Numbers 20:22 - 21:9

20:22 Aaron Dies And they set out from Kadesh. The Israelites, the whole community, came to Mount Hor.
20:23 Yahweh said to Moses and to Aaron on Mount Hor, on the boundary of the land of Edom, saying,
20:24 “Let Aaron be gathered to his people; he will not come into the land that I have given to the Israelites because you rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
20:25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and take them up Mount Hor.
20:26 Strip off Aaron’s garments, and put them on Eleazar his son; Aaron will be gathered to his people, and he will die there.”
20:27 So Moses did just as Yahweh commanded, and they went up to Mount Hor before the eyes of all the community.
20:28 And Moses stripped off Aaron’s garments and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron died there on the top of the mountain; and Moses and Eleazar went down from the mountain.
20:29 All the community saw that Aaron died; so all the house of Israel wept for Aaron thirty days.
21:1 Arad Captured The Canaanite king of Arad, who was dwelling in the Negev, heard that Israel came along the way of Atharim; he fought against Israel and took some of them captive.
21:2 Israel made a vow to Yahweh, and they said, “If you will surely give this people into our hand, then we will destroy their cities.”
21:3 Yahweh heard the voice of Israel; he gave to them the Canaanites, and they destroyed them and their cities. They called the name of the place Hormah.
21:4 They set out from Mount Hor by the way of the Red Sea to go around the land of Edom; but the people became impatient along the way.
21:5 The people spoke against God and against Moses, “Why have you brought us from Egypt to die in the desert? There is no food and no water, and our hearts detest this miserable food.”
21:6 The Bronze Serpent And Yahweh sent among the people poisonous snakes; they bit the people, and many people from Israel died.
21:7 The people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned because we have spoken against Yahweh and against you. Pray to Yahweh and let him remove the snakes from among us.” So Moses prayed for the people.
21:8 And Yahweh said to Moses, “Make for yourself a snake and place it on a pole. When anyone is bitten and looks at it, that person will live.”
21:9 So Moses made a snake of bronze, and he placed it on the pole; whenever a snake bit someone, and that person looked at the snake of bronze, he lived.

Gospel — Luke 20:9-19

LEB translation

Luke 20:9-19

20:9 The Parable of the Tenant Farmers in the Vineyard And he began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, and leased it to tenant farmers, and went on a journey for a long time.
20:10 And at the proper time he sent a slave to the tenant farmers, so that they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenant farmers sent him away empty-handed after beating him.
20:11 And he proceeded to send another slave, but they beat and dishonored that one also, and sent him away empty-handed.
20:12 And he proceeded to send a third, but they wounded and threw out this one also.
20:13 So the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What should I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.’
20:14 But when the tenant farmers saw him, they began to reason with one another, saying, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him so that the inheritance will become ours!’
20:15 And they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
20:16 He will come and destroy those tenant farmers and give the vineyard to others.” And when they heard this, they said, “May this never happen!”
20:17 But he looked intently at them and said, “What then is this that is written: ‘The stone which the builders rejected, this has become the cornerstone.’
20:18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, and the one on whom it falls—it will crush him!”
20:19 And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay their hands on him at that same hour, and they were afraid of the people, for they knew that he had told this parable with reference to them.
