About the third hour he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing.
In context
1 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.
2 He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
3 About the third hour he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing.
4 ‘You also go into my vineyard,’ he said, ‘and I will pay you whatever is right.’
5 So they went. He went out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour and did the same thing.
