19:29. And every one that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or
father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands for my name's sake,
shall receive an hundredfold, and shall possess life everlasting.
19:30. And many that are first, shall be last: and the last shall be
first.
Matthew Chapter 20
The parable of the labourers in the vineyard. The ambition of the two
sons of Zebedee. Christ gives sight to two blind men.
20:1. The kingdom of heaven is like to an householder, who went out
early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.
20:2. And having agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent
them into his vineyard.
20:3. And going out about the third hour, he saw others standing in the
marketplace idle.
20:4. And he said to them: Go you also into my vineyard, and I will give
you what shall be just.
20:5. And they went their way. And again he went out about the sixth and
the ninth hour, and did in like manner.
20:6. But about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing,
and he saith to them: Why stand you here all the day idle?
20:7. They say to him: Because no man hath hired us. He saith to them:
Go ye also into my vineyard.
20:8. And when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard saith to his
steward: Call the labourers and pay them their hire, beginning from the
last even to the first.
20:9. When therefore they were come that came about the eleventh hour,
they received every man a penny.
20:10. But when the first also came, they thought that they should
receive more: And they also received every man a penny.
20:11. And receiving it they murmured against the master of the house,
20:12. Saying: These last have worked but one hour and thou hast made
them equal to us, that have borne the burden of the day and the heats.
20:13. But he answering said to one of them: friend, I do thee no wrong:
didst thou not agree with me for a penny?
20:14. Take what is thine, and go thy way: I will also give to this last
even as to thee.
20:15. Or, is it not lawful for me to do what I will? Is thy eye evil,
because I am good?
What I will... Viz., with my own, and in matters that depend on my own
bounty.
20:16. So shall the last be first and the first last. For many are
called but few chosen.
20:17. And Jesus going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples apart
and said to them:
20:18. Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be
betrayed to the chief priests and the scribes: and they shall condemn
him to death.
20:19. And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to be mocked and scourged
and crucified: and the third day he shall rise again.
20:20. Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee with her sons,
adoring and asking something of him.
20:21. Who said to her: What wilt thou? She saith to him: say that these
my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on thy
left, in thy kingdom.
