:1 ¶ For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man [that is] an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard. | |||
:2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard. | |||
:3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, | |||
:4 And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way. | |||
:5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise. | |||
:6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? | |||
:7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, [that] shall ye receive. | |||
: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. | |||
:15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? | |||
:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen. | |||
