For the kingdom of heaven is like the master of a house, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.

When the evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward: Call the laborers, and, beginning with the last, pay them their hire even to the first.

And in that house remain, eating and drinking what they have to give; for the laborer is worthy of his hire; go not from house to house.

For the scripture says: You shall not muzzle the ox that treads out the grain; and, The laborer is worthy of his hire.

Behold, the hire of the laborers who have reaped your fields, which has been unjustly withheld by you, cries out: and the cries of those who have reaped, have entered into the ears of the Lord of hosts.
