Matthew 20:1-7 ▼

1 For the kingdom of heaven is like the master of a house, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.

2 And when he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing in the market, idle;

4 and he said to them: Go you also into my vine yard, and whatever is right I will give you.

5 And they went. Again he went out about the sixth, and about the ninth hour, and did in like manner.

6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and said to them, Why do you stand here all the day idle?

7 They said to him: No man has hired us. He said to them: Go you also into the vineyard, and whatever is right you shall receive.
