The Parable of the Workers

[“] For the kingdom of heaven is like vvv a landowner who went out early in [the] morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2He agreed [to pay] [them] a denarius[fn] for the day [and] sent them into his vineyard.

3

About the third hour[fn] he went out [and] saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. 4‘You also go into [my] vineyard,’ he said‘and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5So they went.

He went out again about [the] sixth [hour] and [the] ninth hour[fn] [and] did the same thing.

6

About the eleventh hour[fn] he went out [and] found still others standing idle.[fn]‘Why have you been standing here all day [long] doing nothing?’ he asked

7

‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered

So he told them,‘You also go into [my] vineyard, and you will receive whatever is right.[fn]

8

When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman,‘Call the workers and pay them [their] wages, starting with the last [ones hired] and moving on to the first.’

9

[The workers who were hired] about the eleventh hour came [and] each received a denarius. 10So when the original [workers] came, they assumed they would receive more. But each of them also received a denarius.

11

On receiving [their pay], they began to grumble against the landowner. 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.’

13

But he answered one of them‘Friend, vvv I am not being unfair to you. vvv 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. 15vvv vvv Do I not have the right to do as I please with what [is] mine? Or are you envious[fn] because I am generous?’

16

So the last will be first, and the first [will be] last. For many are called, but few are chosen.[fn]

17

The Third Prediction of the Passion

(Mark 10:32–34, Luke 18:31–34)

As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, He took the twelve disciples aside and said 18“Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death 19and will deliver Him {over} to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. And on the third day He will rise again.[fn]

20

A Mother’s Request

(Mark 10:35–45)

Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to [Jesus] with her sons [and] knelt down to make a request of Him.

21

“What do you want?” He inquired

She answered“Declare that in Your kingdom one of these two sons of mine may sit at Your right hand, and [the other] at Your left.”

22

“vvv You do not know what you are asking,” Jesus replied“Can you drink the cup I am going to drink or be baptized with the baptism [with] which I am baptized?[fn]

“We can,” [the brothers] answered

23

“vvv You will indeed drink My cup and be baptized [with the] baptism [with] which I am baptized,”[fn] [Jesus] said“But to sit at My right [or] left is not Mine to grant. [These seats belong] to those for whom My Father has prepared them.”

24

When the ten heard about [this], they were indignant with the two brothers. 25But Jesus called them aside [and] said,“You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and [their] superiors exercise authority over them. 26But[fn] vvv it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, 27and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave — 28just as the Son of Man vvv did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life [as] a ransom for many.”

29

The Blind Men by the Road

(Mark 10:46–52, Luke 18:35–43)

[As] they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him. 30And there were two blind [men] sitting beside the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out“Have mercy on us, Lord,[fn] Son of David!”

31

The crowd admonished them to be silent, but they cried out all the louder“Have mercy on us, Lord,[fn] Son of David!”

32

Jesus stopped [and] called them.“What do you want Me to do for you?” He asked.

33

“Lord,” they answered“let our eyes be opened.”

34

Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes, and at once they received their sight and followed Him.[fn]
