8. So when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard said unto his steward, Call the labourers and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.
9. And when those came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a denarius.
10. But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more but they likewise received each one a denarius.
11. And when they had received it, they murmured against the husband of the house,
12. saying, These last have worked but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us who have borne the burden and heat of the day.
13. But he answered one of them and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong; didst not thou agree with me for a denarius?
14. Take that which is thine and go, for I desire to give unto this last one, even as unto thee.
15. Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil because I am good?
16. So the first shall be last, and the last first; for many are called, but few are chosen.
17. And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way and said unto them,
18. Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the princes of the priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death
19. and shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify; {Gr. stauroo – Hang on a stake}; and the third day he shall rise again.
20. Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, worshipping him and desiring a certain thing of him.
21. And he said unto her, What dost thou desire? She said 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.
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.
