Matthew 20:11-15 ▼

11 And on receiving it they grumbled against the landowner,

12 saying, ‘These last ones worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who bore the day’s burden and the heat.’

13 He said to one of them in reply, ‘My friend, I am not cheating you. Did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage?

14 Take what is yours and go. What if I wish to give this last one the same as you?

15 [Or] am I not free to do as I wish with my own money? Are you envious because I am generous?’
