    9And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.

    10But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.

    11And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,

    12Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.

    15Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?

    16So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.
