Matthew 20:10-15

10But when the first came, they supposed that they should receive more; and they likewise received every man a penny.

11And when they had received it, they murmured against the master of the house,

12Saying, These last have worked but one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, who have borne the burden and heat of the day.1

13But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst thou not agree with me for a penny?

14Take that which is thine, and go thy way: I will give to this last, even as to thee.

15Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my own? Is thy eye evil, because I am good?
