While Jesus was on way to spread the word, he said to the people, for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the laborers for a Denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And going out about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and to them he said, you go into the vineyard too, and whatever is right I will give you.

So they went. Going out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour, he did the same. And about the eleventh, he went out and found others standing, and he said to them, why do you stand here idle all day? They said to him Because no one has hired us.

He said to them, you go into the vineyard too. And when evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last, up to the first. And when those hired about the eleventh came, each of them received a denarius.

And on receiving it they grumbled at the householder, saying, these last work only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat. But he replied to one of them, friend, I am doing you no wrong, did you not agree with me for a denarius?

Take what belongs to you, and go, I choose to give to this last as I give to you. Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or do you begrudge my generosity? So the last will be first and the first last.
