Matthew 20:13
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am not being unfair to you. Did you not agree with me on one denarius?
In context
11 On receiving their pay, they began to grumble against the landowner.
12 ‘These men who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the scorching heat of the day.’
13 But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am not being unfair to you. Did you not agree with me on one denarius?
14 Take your pay and go. I want to give this last man the same as I gave you.
15 Do I not have the right to do as I please with what is mine? Or are you envious because I am generous?’
