4 Então disse-lhes: “Ide vós também à vinha, e vos darei o que for justo”. E eles foram.
5 Saindo novamente perto da hora sexta e nona, fez o mesmo.
6 E quando saiu perto da décima primeira hora, achou outros que estavam desocupados, e lhes perguntou: “Por que estais aqui o dia todo desocupados?”
7 Eles lhe disseram: “Porque ninguém nos empregou”. Ele lhes respondeu: “Ide vós também à vinha, e recebereis o que for justo”.
