Matthew 20:1-8

1 For the kingdom of heaven is like the master of a house, who went out early in the morning to get workers into his vine-garden.

2 And when he had made an agreement with the workmen for a penny a day, he sent them into his vine-garden.

3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others in the market-place doing nothing;

4 And he said to them, Go into the vine-garden with the others, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went to work.

5 Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did the same.

6 And about the eleventh hour he went out and saw others doing nothing; and he says to them, Why are you here all the day doing nothing?

7 They say to him, Because no man has given us work. He says to them, Go in with the rest, into the vine-garden.

8 And when evening came, the lord of the vine-garden said to his manager, Let the workers come, and give them their payment, from the last to the first.
