Matthew 20:8-14
-
8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.
-
9 And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.
-
10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.
-
11 And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,
-
12 Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.
-
13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny?
-
14 Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.
