Again he went out about the sixth and ninth
hour, and did likewise.
6
And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle,
and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
7
They say unto him, Because no man
hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right,
that
shall
ye receive.

labourers, and give them
their
hire, beginning from the last unto the first.
9
And when they came
that

about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.
10
But when the first
came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man
a penny.
11
And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,
12
Saying, These last have wrought
but
one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which
have borne the burden and heat of the day.
13
But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do
thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny?
14

that
thine

15
Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine

Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall
drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
They say unto him, We are

23
And he saith unto them,

it shall
be given to them
