Matthew 20:11-15 ▼

11 When they received it, they grumbled at the landowner,

12 saying, ‘These who were hired last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day’s work and the scorching heat.’

13 But he answered and said to one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with me for a denarius?

14 Take what is yours and go; but I want to give to this last person the same as to you.

15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I want with what is my own? Or is your eye envious because I am generous?’
