8 E chegando o anoitecer, o senhor da vinha disse ao seu mordomo: “Chama aos trabalhadores, e paga-lhes o salário, começando dos últimos, até os primeiros”.

9 Então vieram os de cerca da hora décima primeira, e receberam um denário cada um.

10 Quando os primeiros vieram, pensavam que receberiam mais; porém eles também receberam um denário cada um.

11 Assim, ao receberem, murmuraram contra o chefe de casa,
