He went out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour and did the same thing.Matthew 20:6About the eleventh hour he went out and found still others standing around. ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’ he asked.Matthew 20:7‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered. So he told them, ‘You also go into my vineyard.’Matthew 20:8When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, starting with the last ones hired and moving on to the first.’Matthew 20:9The workers who were hired about the eleventh hour came and each received a denarius.Matthew 20:10So when the original workers came, they assumed they would receive more. But each of them also received a denarius.Matthew 20:11On receiving their pay, they began to grumble against the landowner.Matthew 20:12‘These men who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the scorching heat of the day.’Matthew 20:13But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am not being unfair to you.

They beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.Matthew 21:36Again, he sent other servants, more than the first group. But the tenants did the same to them.Matthew 21:37Finally, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.Matthew 21:38But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and take his inheritance.’Matthew 21:39So they seized him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.Matthew 21:40Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard returns, what will he do to those tenants?”Matthew 21:41“He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and will rent out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him his share of the fruit at harvest time.”Luke 10:7Stay at the same house, eating and drinking whatever you are offered.
