Matius 20:6-34

20:6 And about five o’clock that afternoon ¹  he went out and found others standing around, and said to them, ‘Why are you standing here all day without work?’ 20:7 They said to him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You go and work in the vineyard too.’ 20:8 When ²  it was evening ³  the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, ‘Call the workers and give the pay ⁴  starting with the last hired until the first.’ 20:9 When those hired about five o’clock came, each received a full day’s pay. ⁵  20:10 And when those hired first came, they thought they would receive more. But each one also received the standard wage. 20:11 When ⁶  they received it, they began to complain ⁷  against the landowner, 20:12 saying, ‘These last fellows worked one hour, and you have made them equal to us who bore the hardship and burning heat of the day.’ 20:13 And the landowner ⁸  replied to one of them, ⁹  ‘Friend, I am not treating you unfairly. Didn’t you agree with me to work for the standard wage? ¹⁰  20:14 Take what is yours and go. I ¹¹  want to give to this last man ¹²  the same as I gave to you. 20:15 Am I not ¹³  permitted to do what I want with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?’ ¹⁴  20:16 So the last will be first, and the first last.”

Third Prediction of Jesus’ Death and Resurrection

20:17 As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, ¹⁵  he took the twelve ¹⁶  aside privately and said to them on the way, 20:18 “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the experts in the law. ¹⁷  They will condemn him to death, 20:19 and will turn him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged severely ¹⁸  and crucified. ¹⁹  Yet ²⁰  on the third day, he will be raised.”

A Request for James and John

20:20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, and kneeling down she asked him for a favor. ²¹  20:21 He said to her, “What do you want?” She replied, ²²  “Permit ²³  these two sons of mine to sit, one at your ²⁴  right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom.” 20:22 Jesus ²⁵  answered, “You don’t know what you are asking! ²⁶  Are you able to drink the cup I am about to drink?” ²⁷  They said to him, “We are able.” ²⁸  20:23 He told them, “You will drink my cup, ²⁹  but to sit at my right and at my left is not mine to give. Rather, it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”

20:24 Now ³⁰  when the other ten ³¹  heard this, ³²  they were angry with the two brothers. 20:25 But Jesus called them and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in high positions use their authority over them. 20:26 It must not be this way among you! Instead whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant, 20:27 and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave ³³  – 20:28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom ³⁴  for many.”

Two Blind Men Healed

20:29 As they were leaving Jericho, ³⁵  a large crowd followed them. 20:30 Two ³⁶  blind men were sitting by the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they shouted, ³⁷  “Have mercy ³⁸  on us, Lord, Son of David!” ³⁹  20:31 The ⁴⁰  crowd scolded ⁴¹  them to get them to be quiet. But they shouted even more loudly, “Lord, have mercy on us, ⁴²  Son of David!” 20:32 Jesus stopped, called them, and said, “What do you want me to do for you?” 20:33 They said to him, “Lord, let our eyes be opened.” 20:34 Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him.
