For the kingdom of the heavens is like unto a landlord man, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.

And it being evening, the lord of the vineyard says to his steward, Call the laborers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last even unto the first.

Abide in the same house, eating and drinking those things which are with them: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.

For the scripture says, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn: and, The laborer is worthy of his hire.
