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.
8 When the evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward: Call the laborers, and, beginning with the last, pay them their hire even to the first.
9 And when those came who had been hired about the eleventh hour, they received each one a denarius.
10 But when those came who had been hired first, they thought that they would receive more; and they received each one a denarius.
11 And when they received it, they murmured against the master of the house,
12 saying: These last have worked one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day, and the heat.
13 But he answered and said to one of them: Friend, I do you no in justice; did you not agree with me for a denarius?
14 Take what is yours, and go; I will give to this last even as to you.
