MT-20:1 For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man [that is]
an householder,
which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his
vineyard.
MT-20:2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a
day, he sent
them into his vineyard.
MT-20:3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others
standing idle in
the marketplace,
MT-20:4 And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and
whatsoever is
right I will give you. And they went their way.
MT-20:5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and
did likewise.
MT-20:6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found
others standing
idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
MT-20:7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He
saith unto them,
Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, [that]
shall ye receive.
MT-20:8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith
unto his
steward, Call the labourers, and give them [their] hire,
beginning from the
last unto the first.
MT-20:9 And when they came that [were hired] about the eleventh
hour, they
received every man a penny.
MT-20:10 But when the first came, they supposed that they
should have received
more; and they likewise received every man a penny.
MT-20:11 And when they had received [it], they murmured against
the goodman of
the house,
MT-20:12 Saying, These last have wrought [but] one hour, and
thou hast made
them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the
day.
MT-20:13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do
thee no wrong:
didst not thou agree with me for a penny?
MT-20:14 Take [that] thine [is], and go thy way: I will give
unto this last,
even as unto thee.
MT-20:15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine
own? Is thine eye
evil, because I am good?
MT-20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for
many be called,
but few chosen.
MT-20:17 And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve
disciples apart in
the way, and said unto them,
MT-20:18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man
shall be betrayed
unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall
condemn him to
death,
MT-20:19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to
scourge, and to
crucify [him]: and the third day he shall rise again.
MT-20:20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with
her sons,
worshipping [him], and desiring a certain thing of him.
MT-20:21 And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto
him, Grant that
these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the
other on the
left, in thy kingdom.
MT-20:22 But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask.
Are ye able to
drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with
the baptism
that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.
MT-20:23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my
cup, and be
baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on
my right hand,
and on my left, is not mine to give, but [it shall be given to
them] for whom
it is prepared of my Father.
MT-20:24 And when the ten heard [it], they were moved with
indignation against
the two brethren.
MT-20:25 But Jesus called them [unto him], and said, Ye know
that the princes
of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are
great exercise
authority upon them.
MT-20:26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will
be great among
you, let him be your minister;
MT-20:27 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your
servant:
MT-20:28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto,
but to
minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
MT-20:29 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude
followed him.
MT-20:30 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side,
when they heard
that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O
Lord, [thou] son
of David.
MT-20:31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should
hold their peace:
but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord,
[thou] son of David.
MT-20:32 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What
will ye that I
shall do unto you?
MT-20:33 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
MT-20:34 So Jesus had compassion [on them], and touched their
eyes: and
immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.
