13 “ ‘Listen, friend,’ the owner answered one of them, ‘I have not cheated you. After all, you agreed to do a day's work for one silver coin.
14 Now take your pay and go home. I want to give this man who was hired last as much as I have given you.
15 Don't I have the right to do as I wish with my own money? Or are you jealous because I am generous?’ ”
16 And Jesus concluded, “So those who are last will be first, and those who are first will be last.”
17 As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside and spoke to them privately, as they walked along.
18 “Listen,” he told them, “we are going up to Jerusalem, where the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the teachers of the Law. They will condemn him to death
19 and then hand him over to the Gentiles, who will mock him, whip him, and crucify him; but three days later he will be raised to life.”
