Matthew 20:1-5 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. “For the kingdom of heaven is like a man—the master of the house—who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.

2. And after coming to an agreement with the workers for a denarius per day, he sent them into his vineyard.

3. And going out about the third hour, he saw others standing idle in the marketplace.

4. And to those people he said, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and I will give you whatever is right.’

5. So they went. Going out again about the sixth and ninth hour he did the same thing.
