When those who had been hired about five o'clock came, they got a shilling each.
and after agreeing with the labourers to pay them a shilling a day he sent them into his vineyard.
Now when evening came the master of the vineyard said to his bailiff, 'Summon the labourers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last and going on to the first.'
So when the first labourers came up, they supposed they would get more; but they too got each their shilling.
