Matthew 20:10-15
10And so when those hired first came, they thought that they would receive more; 1but each of them also received a denarius.
11When they received it, they grumbled at the landowner,
12saying, ‘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 2scorching heat.’
13But he answered and said to one of them, ‘3Friend, I am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with me for a denarius?
14Take what is yours and go; but I want to give to this last person the same as to you.
15Is it not lawful for me to do what I want with what is my own? Or is your 4eye 5envious because I am 6generous?’
