Hear another parable: There was a master of a house who planted a vineyard, and put a hedge around it, and rigged in it a wine-press, and built a tower, and let it out to vine-dressers, and went into another country. And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the vine-dressers to receive the fruits of it. And the vine-dressers took his servants, and scourged one, and killed another, and stoned another. read more.

But the vine-dressers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and seize upon the inheritance. And they took him, and carried him out of the vineyard, and killed him. Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vine dressers? They said to him: He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and let out his vineyard to other vine dressers, who will give him the fruits in their season.

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.

and he said to them: Go you also into my vine yard, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went. Again he went out about the sixth, and about the ninth hour, and did in like manner. And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and said to them, Why do you stand here all the day idle? They said to him: No man has hired us. He said to them: Go you also into the vineyard, and whatever is right you shall receive. 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 when those came who had been hired about the eleventh hour, they received each one a denarius. But when those came who had been hired first, they thought that they would receive more; and they received each one a denarius. And when they received it, they murmured against the master of the house, saying: These last have worked one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day, and the heat. But he answered and said to one of them: Friend, I do you no in justice; did you not agree with me for a denarius? Take what is yours, and go; I will give to this last even as to you. Is it not allowed me to do what I will with my own? Or, is your eye envious, because I am good? So the last shall be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.
