5Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.
6And about the eleventh he went out, and found others standing, and says to them: Why stand ye here all the day idle? 7They say to him: Because no one hired us. He says to them: Go ye also into the vineyard.
8And when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard says to his steward: Call the laborers, and pay them the hire, beginning from the last, unto the first. 9And they of the eleventh hour came, and received every man a denáry. 10But when the first came, they supposed that they should receive more; and they also received each one a denáry. 11And on receiving it, they murmured against the householder, 12saying: These last labored one hour, and thou madest them equal to us, who bore the burden of the day, and the burning heat.
13But he answering said to one of them: Friend, I do thee no wrong. Didst thou not agree with me for a denáry? 14Take what is thine, and go. But I will give to this last, even as to thee. 15Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?
16So will the last be first, and the first last; for many are called, but few are chosen.
17And Jesus, going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples apart; and in the way he said to them: 18Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death, 19and will deliver him to the Gentiles to mock and scourge and crucify; and on the third day he will rise again.
20Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, bowing down and asking a certain thing of him. 21And he said to her: What wilt thou? She says to him: Command that these my two sons shall sit, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left, in thy kingdom. 22But Jesus answering said: Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of? They say to him: We are able. 23And he says to them: Ye shall drink indeed of my cup; but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but is for them for whom it has been prepared by my Father. 24And the ten, hearing it, were much displeased with the two brothers. 25But Jesus, having called them to him, said: Ye know that the rulers of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and they that are great exercise authority over them. 26Not so shall it be among you; 27but whoever would become great among you, let him be your minister; and whoever would be first among you, let him be your servant; 28even as the Son of man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
29And as they were going forth from Jericho, a great multitude followed him. 30And behold, two blind men sitting by the way-side, hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried, saying: Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David. 31And the multitude rebuked them, that they should hold their peace. But they cried the more, saying: Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David. 32And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said: What will ye that I shall do to you? 33They say to him: Lord, that our eyes may be opened. 34And Jesus, moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes received sight; and they followed him.
XXI. And when they drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the mount of the Olives, Jesus sent forth two disciples, 2saying to them: Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye will find an ass tied, and a colt with her; loose and bring them to me. 3And if any one say aught to you, ye shall say: The Lord has need of them; and straightway he will send them.
4Now all this has been done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying:
