Matthew 20:1-7

1For the kingdomG932 of the heavensG3772 isG1510 like a householder who wentG1831 out with the earlyG4404 morn to hire workmenG2040 for his vineyardG290.

2And having agreedG4856 with the workmenG2040 for a denariusG1220 the dayG2250, he sentG649 them into his vineyardG290.

3And having goneG1831 out about [the] thirdG5154 hourG5610, he sawG3708 othersG243 standingG2476 in the market-place idleG692;

4and to them he saidG3004, GoG5217 alsoG2532 ye into the vineyardG290, and whatsoever may beG1510 justG1342 I will giveG1325 you. And they wentG5217 their way.

5AgainG3825, having goneG1831 out about the sixthG1623 and ninth hourG5610, he did likewiseG5615.

6But about the eleventhG1734 [hour], having goneG1831 out, he foundG2147 othersG243 standingG2476, and saysG3004 to them, WhyG5101 standG2476 ye hereG5602 all the dayG2250 idleG692?

7They sayG3004 to him, Because no man has hired us. He saysG3004 to them, GoG5217 alsoG2532 ye into the vineyardG290 [and whatsoever may be just ye shall receive].
