Behold, we have forsaken all and follow thee.

Verily I say unto you, there is no man that hath left house, or parents,

or brethren, or wife, or children, for my sake and the gospel's,

which shall not receive manifold more in this present time in the world to come.

Life Life lasting.

But many that are first shall be last, and the last shall be first.

But the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man, that is, an householder,

which went out early in the morning to hire laborers into his vineyard.

And when he had agreed with the laborers for a penny a day,

he sent them into his vineyard.

And and he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the market place, and said unto them, go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right, I will give you . And they went their way.

Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.

And about the 11th hour he went out and found others standing idle,

and saith unto them, why send ye hear all the day I will.

They say unto him, because no man hath hired us.

He saith unto them, go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right, that shall ye see. So when even was come, the Lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, call the laborers,

and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.

And when they came that were hired about the 11th hour,

they received every man a penny.

And when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more.

And they likewise received every man a penny.

And when they had received it, they murmured against the good men of the house, saying,

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.

But he answered one of them and said. Friend. I do thee. No wrong.

It's not thou. Agree with me for a penny.

Take that thine is, and go thy way. I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.

Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own?

Is thine eye evil because I am good?

So the last shall be first, and the first last. And he be called.

A few chosen.
