Another parable, hear ye: - A man there was, a householder, who planted a vineyard, and, a wall around it, placed, and digged in it a wine-vat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, - and left home.

Again, sent he forth other servants, more than the first, and they did unto them, likewise. Afterwards, however, he sent forth unto them his son, saying, - They will pay deference unto my son! But, the husbandmen, seeing the son, said among themselves, - This, is, the heir: Come on! Let us slay him, and have his inheritance. And, taking him, they cast him forth outside the vineyard, - and slew him. When therefore the master of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him - Miserable men! Miserably, will he destroy them; and will let out, the vineyard, to other husbandmen, who will render unto him the fruits in their seasons.

Look sway from him, that he may rest, Till he shall pay off, as a hireling, his day.

For the kingdom of the heavens, is like, a man, a householder, - who went forth with the morning, to hire labourers into his vineyard; and, when he had agreed with the labourers for a denary the day, he sent them into his vineyard. And, going forth about the third hour, he saw others, standing in the market-place, unemployed; read more.
and, to them, he said - ye also, go your way into the vineyard, and, whatsoever may be right, I will give you; and, they, departed. And, again, going forth about the sixth and ninth hour, he did likewise. And, about the eleventh, going forth, he found others, standing, and saith unto them - Why, here, stand ye, all the day, unemployed? They say unto him - Because, no one, hath hired, us. He saith unto them - Ye also, go your way into the vineyard. And, when evening came, the master of the vineyard saith unto his steward - Call the labourers, and pay the hire, - beginning from the last, unto the first. And they of the eleventh hour, coming, received severally a denary. And, when the first came, they supposed that, more, they should receive, - and, they also, received severally a denary. And, having received it, they began to murmur against the householder, saying - These last, one hour, wrought, and thou hast made them, equal unto us, who have borne the burden of the day, and the scorching heat. And, he, answering, unto one of them, said, - Friend! I wrong thee not: Was it not, for a denary, thou didst agree with me? Take thine own, and go thy way; but I please, unto this last, to give, as also to thee: Is it not allowed me to do, what I please, with my own? or is, thine eye, evil, because I good?

The hireling, even because he is no shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, vieweth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, - and, the wolf, seizeth them and scattereth, - Because, a hireling, he is, and hath no care for the sheep.
