Matthew 20:10-12

Expanded Bible

¹⁰ When the workers who were hired first came to get their pay, they ·thought [expected; assumed] they would be paid more than the others. But each one of them also received ·one coin [^La denarius]. ¹¹ When they got their coin, they ·complained to [grumbled at; protested to] the ·man who owned the land [landowner; householder]. ¹² They said, ‘Those people were hired last and worked only one hour. But you ·paid them the same as you paid [^Lmade them equal to] us who ·worked hard all day in the hot sun [^Lbore the burden and heat of the day].’
