Matthew 20:9

When those who were hired about five o'clock came they received a dollar apiece.

He agreed with the laborers to pay them a dollar a day, and sent them to his vineyard.

About five he went out and found others standing about and he said to them, 'Why have you been standing about here all day doing nothing?'

But the other reproved him and said, "Have you no fear even of God when you are suffering the same penalty?

for what does the Scripture say? "Abraham had faith in God, and it was credited to him as uprightness."

Then law slipped in, and multiplied the offense. But greatly as sin multiplied, God's mercy has far surpassed it,

so that we might praise the splendid blessing which he has given us through his beloved Son.

For it is by his mercy that you have been saved through faith. It is not by your own action, it is the gift of God.

and the blessing of our Lord has been given me in the greatest abundance, together with faith and love that union with Christ Jesus brings.

And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.

He agreed with the laborers to pay them a dollar a day, and sent them to his vineyard.

But the other reproved him and said, "Have you no fear even of God when you are suffering the same penalty?

for what does the Scripture say? "Abraham had faith in God, and it was credited to him as uprightness."

Then law slipped in, and multiplied the offense. But greatly as sin multiplied, God's mercy has far surpassed it,

so that we might praise the splendid blessing which he has given us through his beloved Son.

For it is by his mercy that you have been saved through faith. It is not by your own action, it is the gift of God.

and the blessing of our Lord has been given me in the greatest abundance, together with faith and love that union with Christ Jesus brings.
