12‘These men who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the scorching heat of the day.’
13But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am not being unfair to you. Did you not agree with me on one denarius?
14Take your pay and go. I want to give this last man the same as I gave you.
15Do I not have the right to do as I please with what is mine? Or are you envious because I am generous?’
— Matthew 20:12-15
