Laborers in the Vineyard
1 "For 1the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his 2vineyard.
2
"When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius for the day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3
"And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the market place;
4
and to those he said, 'You also go into the vineyard, and whatever * is right I will give you.' And so they went.
5
"Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did the same thing.
6
"And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing around; and he said to them, 'Why have you been standing here idle all day long?'
7
"They said to him, 'Because no one hired us.' He said to them, 'You go into the vineyard too.'
