rotherham Matthew:20:1-16
rotherham@Matthew:20:1 @ For the kingdom of the heavens, is like, a man, a householder, who went forth with the morning, to hire labourers into his vineyard;
rotherham@Matthew:20:2 @ and, when he had agreed with the labourers for a denary the day, he sent them into his vineyard.
rotherham@Matthew:20:3 @ And, going forth about the third hour, he saw others, standing in the market-place, unemployed;
rotherham@Matthew:20:4 @ and, to them, he saidye also, go your way into the vineyard, and, whatsoever may be right, I will give you;
rotherham@Matthew:20:5 @ and, they, departed. And, again, going forth about the sixth and ninth hour, he did likewise.
rotherham@Matthew:20:6 @ And, about the eleventh, going forth, he found others, standing, and saith unto them Why, here, stand ye, all the day, unemployed?
rotherham@Matthew:20:7 @ They say unto him Because, no one, hath hired, us. He saith unto them Ye also, go your way into the vineyard.
rotherham@Matthew:20:8 @ 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.
rotherham@Matthew:20:9 @ And they of the eleventh hour, coming, received severally a denary.
rotherham@Matthew:20:10 @ And, when the first came, they supposed that, more, they should receive, and, they also, received severally a denary.
rotherham@Matthew:20:11 @ And, having received it, they began to murmur against the householder, saying
rotherham@Matthew:20:12 @ 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.
rotherham@Matthew:20:13 @ And, he, answering, unto one of them, said, Friend! I wrong thee not: Was it not, for a denary, thou didst agree with me?
rotherham@Matthew:20:14 @ Take thine own, and go thy way; but I please, unto this last, to give, as also to thee:
rotherham@Matthew:20:15 @ Is it not allowed me to do, what I please, with my own? or is, thine eye, evil, because I good?
rotherham@Matthew:20:16 @ Thus, shall be The last first, and the first last.
