Matthew 20:8-16

8“NowG1161 when 1eveningG3798 cameG1096, the 2ownerG2962 of the vineyardG290 saidG3004 to his 3foremanG2012, ‘CallG2564 the laborersG2040 and payG591 them their wagesG3408, startingG757 with the lastG2078 group to the firstG4413.’ 9WhenG2532 thoseG3588 hired aboutG4012 the eleventhG1734 hourG5610 cameG2064, eachG303 oneG303 receivedG2983 a 4denariusG1220. 10And so when thoseG3588 hired firstG4413 cameG2064, they thoughtG3543 that they would receiveG2983 moreG4183; 5but eachG303 of them alsoG2532 receivedG2983 a denariusG1220. 11When they receivedG2983 it, they grumbledG1111 at the landownerG3617, 12sayingG3004, ‘TheseG3778 who were hired lastG2078 workedG4160 only oneG1520 hourG5610, and you have madeG4160 them equalG2470 to us whoG3588 have borneG941 the burdenG922 of the day’sG2250 work and the 6scorchingG2742 heatG2742.’ 13But he answeredG611 and saidG3004 to oneG1520 of them, ‘7FriendG2083, I am doingG91 you noG3756 wrongG91; did you not agreeG4856 with me for a denariusG1220? 14TakeG142 whatG3588 is yoursG4674 and goG5217; but I wantG2309 to giveG1325 to thisG3778 lastG2078 personG2078 the sameG2532 as to you. 15Is it not lawfulG1832 for me to doG4160 whatG3739 I wantG2309 with whatG3588 is my ownG1699? OrG2228 is your 8eyeG3788 9enviousG4190 becauseG3754 I amG1510 10generousG18?’ 16SoG3779 11the lastG2078 shall be firstG4413, and the firstG4413, lastG2078.”
