Hypocracy and Retribution
Whoever winks the eye plots mischief, and those who know him will keep their distance.
Sirach 27:22
Gospel teachings of Jesus
The laborers in the vineyardFor the kingdom is heaven is like a landowner
who went out early in the morning to hire laborers
for his vineyard. After agreeing with the laborers for
the usual daily wage, he sent them into his vineyard.
When he went out about 9 O 'clock, he saw others
standing idle in the market-place; and he said to them,
'You also go into the vineyard, and I will pay you
whatever is right. So they went. When he went out
again about noon and about three O 'Clock, he did the
same. And about five O 'clock he went out and
found others standing around; and he said to them. 'Why
are you standing here idle all day?' They said to him,
'Because no one has hired us.' He said to them, 'You also
go into the vineyard.' When evening came the owner of
the vineyard said to the manager, 'Call the laborers and
give them their pay, beginning with the last and then going
to the first.' When those hired about five O 'clock came,
each of them received the usual daily wage. Now when
the first came, they thought they would receive more,
but each of them received the usual daily wage. And when
they received it, they grumbled against the landowner
saying, 'These last worked only one hour, and you have
made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the
day and the scorching heat.' But he replied to one of them,
'Friend I am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with
me for the usual daily wage? Take what belongs to you and
go; I choose to give to this last the same as I give to you.
Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to
me? Or are you envious because I am generous?' So the
last will be first and the first will be last."
Mathew 20:1 - 16
