12 ‘These who were hired last worked one hour, and they received the same pay as we did even though we had to work the whole day in the hot sun.’
13 "But he replied to one of them, ‘Friend, I did you no wrong. Didn’t I agree to pay you a denarion?
14 Take what belongs to you and go. I want to give to this one who was hired last the same as I give to you.
