11“Lakini mtini ukaijibu, ‘Je, niache kutoa matunda yangu mazuri na matamu, ili niende nikawe juu ya miti?’ 12“Ndipo miti ikauambia mzabibu, ‘Njoo na uwe mfalme wetu.’ 13“Lakini mzabibu ukaijibu, ‘Je, niache kutoa divai yangu inayofurahisha miungu na wanadamu ili nikawe juu ya miti?’ 14“Mwishoni miti yote ikauambia mti wa miiba, ‘Njoo na uwe mfalme wetu.’ 15“Nao mti wa miiba ukaijibu, ‘Kama kweli mnataka niwe mfalme wenu, basi njooni mpate kupumzika chini ya kivuli changu.
