  • The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard

    “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
  • The Parable of the Vineyard Workers

    For the kingdom of the heavens is like a householder who went out with the early morn to hire workmen for his vineyard.
  • Now when he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
  • And having agreed with the workmen for a denarius the day, he sent them into his vineyard.
  • And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,
  • And having gone out about [the] third hour, he saw others standing in the market-place idle;
  • and said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went.
  • and to them he said, Go also ye into the vineyard, and whatsoever may be just I will give you. And they went their way.
  • Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise.
  • Again, having gone out about the sixth and ninth hour, he did likewise.
  • And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing [a]idle, and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here idle all day?’
  • But about the eleventh [hour], having gone out, he found others standing, and says to them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
  • They said to him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, [b]and whatever is right you will receive.’
  • They say to him, Because no man has hired us. He says to them, Go also ye into the vineyard [and whatsoever may be just ye shall receive].
  • “So when evening had come, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, ‘Call the laborers and give them their wages, beginning with the last to the first.’
  • But when the evening was come, the lord of the vineyard says to his steward, Call the workmen and pay [them] their wages, beginning from the last even to the first.
  • And when those came who were hired about the eleventh hour, they each received a denarius.
  • And when they [who came to work] about the eleventh hour came, they received each a denarius.
  • But when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise received each a denarius.
  • And when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more, and they received also themselves each a denarius.
  • And when they had received it, they [c]complained against the landowner,
  • And on receiving it they murmured against the master of the house,
  • saying, ‘These last men have worked only one hour, and you made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the heat of the day.’
  • saying, These last have worked one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the heat.
  • But he answered one of them and said, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?
  • But he answering said to one of them, [My] friend, I do not wrong thee. Didst thou not agree with me for a denarius?
  • Take what is yours and go your way. I wish to give to this last man the same as to you.
  • Take what is thine and go. But it is my will to give to this last even as to thee:
  • Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with my own things? Or is your eye evil because I am good?’
  • is it not lawful for me to do what I will in my own affairs? Is thine eye evil because *I* am good?
  • So the last will be first, and the first last. For[d] many are called, but few chosen.”
  • Thus shall the last be first, and the first last; for many are called ones, but few chosen ones.
  • Jesus a Third Time Predicts His Death and Resurrection

  • “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death,
  • Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man will be delivered up to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death;
  • and deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He will rise again.”
  • and they will deliver him up to the nations to mock and to scourge and to crucify, and the third day he shall rise again.

  • A Mother's Request

    Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, doing homage, and asking something of him.
  • And He said to her, “What do you wish?”
    She said to Him, “Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on the left, in Your kingdom.”
  • And he said to her, What wilt thou? She says to him, Speak [the word] that these my two sons may sit, one on thy right hand and one on thy left in thy kingdom.
  • But Jesus answered and said, “You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, [e]and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”
    They said to Him, “We are able.”
  • And Jesus answering said, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink the cup which *I* am about to drink? They say to him, We are able.
  • So He said to them, “You will indeed drink My cup, [f]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 is for those for whom it is prepared by My Father.”
  • [And] he says to them, Ye shall drink indeed my cup, but to sit on my right hand and on [my] left, is not mine to give, but to those for whom it is prepared of my Father.
  • And when the ten heard it, they were greatly displeased with the two brothers.
  • And the ten, having heard [of it], were indignant about the two brothers.
  • But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who are great exercise authority over them.
  • But Jesus having called them to [him], said, Ye know that the rulers of the nations exercise lordship over them, and the great exercise authority over them.
  • Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant.
  • It shall not be thus amongst you, but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your servant;
  • And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave —
  • and whosoever will be first among you, let him be your bondman;
  • just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”
  • as indeed the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.

  • And lo, two blind men, sitting by the wayside, having heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out saying, Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David.
  • Then the multitude warned them that they should be quiet; but they cried out all the more, saying, “Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!”
  • But the crowd rebuked them, that they might be silent. But they cried out the more, saying, Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David.

  • They say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
  • So Jesus had compassion and touched their eyes. And immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him.
