MATTHEW

Matthew 20

1“The kingdom of heaven is like the father of a family who went out in early morning to lead workers into his vineyard.
Matthew 13:24, Matthew 13:47, Matthew 13:24, Matthew 13:47, Song of Solomon 8:11
2Then, having made an agreement with the workers for one denarius per day, he sent them into his vineyard.
Matthew 22:19, 1 Kings 3:6, 1 Kings 3:11, 1 Samuel 16:11, 1 Samuel 16:12
3And going out about the third hour, he saw others standing idle in the marketplace.
1 Timothy 5:13, 1 Timothy 5:13, Proverbs 19:15, Acts 2:15, Mark 15:25
4And he said to them, ‘You may go into my vineyard, too, and what I will give you will be just.’
1 Timothy 1:12, 1 Timothy 1:13, 1 Corinthians 6:11, Matthew 9:9, 1 Peter 4:2
5So they went forth. But again, he went out about the sixth, and about the ninth hour, and he acted similarly.
Hebrews 11:24, Hebrews 11:26, Hebrews 11:24, Hebrews 11:26, Joshua 24:2
6Yet truly, about the eleventh hour, he went out and found others standing, and he said to them, ‘Why have you stood here idle all day?’
John 9:4, Hebrews 6:12, John 9:4, Hebrews 6:12, Acts 17:21
7They say to him, ‘Because no one has hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You also may go into my vineyard.’
Hebrews 6:10, Ephesians 2:11, Ephesians 2:12, Hebrews 6:10, Ephesians 2:11
8And when evening had arrived, the lord of the vineyard said to his manager, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last, even to the first.’
Deuteronomy 24:15, Deuteronomy 24:15, 1 Peter 4:10, 1 Peter 4:10, Luke 10:7
9And so, when those who had arrived about the eleventh hour came forward, each received a single denarius.
Romans 4:3, Romans 4:6, Ephesians 2:8, Ephesians 2:10, Matthew 20:2
10Then when the first ones also came forward, they considered that they would receive more. But they, too, received one denarius.
11And upon receiving it, they murmured against the father of the family,
Luke 19:7, 1 Thessalonians 2:16, Luke 19:7, 1 Thessalonians 2:16, Acts 11:2
12saying, ‘These last have worked for one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who worked bearing the weight and heat of the day.’
Romans 11:5, Romans 11:6, Romans 11:5, Romans 11:6, 2 Corinthians 11:23
13But responding to one of them, he said: ‘Friend, I caused you no injury. Did you not agree with me to one denarius?
Matthew 26:50, Matthew 26:50, Matthew 22:12, Matthew 22:12, Romans 9:14
14Take what is yours and go. But it is my will to give to this last, just as to you.
John 17:2, Luke 15:31, John 17:2, Luke 15:31, Matthew 6:6
15And is it not lawful for me to do what I will? Or is your eye wicked because I am good?’
Romans 9:15, Romans 9:24, Deuteronomy 15:9, Romans 9:15, Romans 9:24
16So then, the last shall be first, and the first shall be last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”
Matthew 19:30, Matthew 19:30, Mark 10:31, Mark 10:31, Matthew 22:14
17And Jesus, ascending to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples aside in private and said to them:
Mark 10:32, Mark 10:34, Mark 10:32, Mark 10:34, John 15:15
18“Behold, we are ascending to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be handed over to the leaders of the priests and to the scribes. And they shall condemn him to death.
Matthew 16:21, Matthew 16:21, Acts 2:23, Matthew 27:1, Acts 2:23
19And they shall hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and scourged and crucified. And on the third day, he shall rise again.”
Matthew 16:21, Matthew 16:21, Mark 15:16, Mark 15:20, Mark 15:16
20Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee approached him, with her sons, adoring him, and petitioning something from him.
Matthew 4:21, Matthew 8:2, Matthew 4:21, Matthew 8:2, Mark 10:35
21And he said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Declare that these, my two sons, may sit, one at your right hand, and the other at your left, in your kingdom.”
Matthew 19:28, Matthew 19:28, Mark 10:36, Mark 10:37, Mark 10:36
22But Jesus, responding, said: “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink from the chalice, from which I will drink?” They said to him, “We are able.”
Luke 22:42, Matthew 26:42, Luke 22:42, Matthew 26:42, John 18:11
23He said to them: “From my chalice, indeed, you shall drink. But to sit at my right or my left is not mine to give to you, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”
Revelation 1:9, Revelation 1:9, Mark 10:40, Acts 12:2, Matthew 25:34
24And the ten, upon hearing this, became indignant with the two brothers.
1 Peter 5:5, 1 Peter 5:5, James 4:5, James 4:6, Mark 10:41
25But Jesus called them to himself and said: “You know that the first ones among the Gentiles are their rulers, and that those who are greater exercise power among them.
Luke 22:25, Luke 22:27, Luke 22:25, Luke 22:27, Matthew 20:25
26It shall not be this way among you. But whoever will want to be greater among you, let him be your minister.
Mark 10:43, Mark 10:43, Mark 10:45, Mark 9:35, Mark 10:45
27And whoever will want to be first among you, he shall be your servant,
Luke 22:26, Mark 9:33, Mark 9:35, Luke 22:26, Mark 9:33
28even as the Son of man has not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a redemption for many.”
Hebrews 9:28, Hebrews 9:28, Luke 22:27, Luke 22:27, Titus 2:14
29And as they were departing from Jericho, a great crowd followed him.
Mark 10:46, Mark 10:52, Mark 10:46, Mark 10:52, Luke 18:35
30And behold, two blind men, sitting by the way, heard that Jesus was passing by; and they cried out, saying, “Lord, Son of David, take pity on us.”
Matthew 21:14, Mark 10:46, Matthew 21:9, Matthew 22:42, Matthew 21:14
31But the crowd rebuked them to be quiet. But they cried out all the more, saying, “Lord, Son of David, take pity on us.”
Matthew 19:13, Matthew 19:13, Colossians 4:2, Colossians 4:2, Matthew 7:7
32And Jesus stood still, and he called them and said, “What do you want, that I might do for you?”
Ezekiel 36:37, Ezekiel 36:37, Philippians 4:6, Philippians 4:6, Matthew 20:21
33They said to him, “Lord, that our eyes be opened.”
Psalms 119:18, Psalms 119:18, Ephesians 1:17, Ephesians 1:19, Ephesians 1:17
34Then Jesus, taking pity on them, touched their eyes. And immediately they saw, and they followed him.
