Matthew 20:9 In-Context

7 "'No one has hired us,' they answered him. "He said to them, 'Work in my vineyard.'
8 "When evening came, the owner of the vineyard told the supervisor, 'Call the workers, and give them their wages. Start with the last, and end with the first.'
9 "Those who started working about 5 p.m. came, and each received a day's wages.
10 When those who had been hired first came, they expected to receive more. But each of them received a day's wages.
11 Although they took it, they began to protest to the owner.
