READY-JNT), AND (DRESS) (YOURSELF) (for work), AND SERVE ME, (UNTIL) I HAVE
EATEN AND (DRUNK); AND AFTERWARD (YOU) (MAY) EAT AND DRINK?
Lk 17:9. (DOES) HE THANK THAT SERVANT (or slave) BECAUSE HE DID THE
THINGS THAT WERE COMMANDED HIM? I
(THINK) (NO).
Lk 17:10. SO LIKEWISE (YOU), WHEN (YOU) SHALL HAVE DONE ALL THOSE THINGS
WHICH ARE COMMANDED YOU, SAY, WE ARE UNPROFITABLE (or unworthy, or ordinary) SERVANTS
(or slaves): WE HAVE DONE (only) THAT WHICH WAS OUR DUTY TO DO.

Lk 18:5. YET BECAUSE THIS WIDOW (KEEPS BOTHERING) ME, I WILL AVENGE HER
(or give her legal protection-NASB, or will see that she gets justice-NIV),
LEST BY HER CONTINUAL COMING SHE WEARY ME (or otherwise, she’ll keep coming and
pestering me till she wears me out-JNT).
Lk 18:6. AND THE LORD SAID, (LISTEN TO) WHAT THE UNJUST JUDGE (SAID).

WENT OUT, AND FOUND OTHERS (still) STANDING IDLE, AND (SAID) (TO) THEM, WHY
STAND (YOU) HERE ALL THE DAY (long) IDLE (or doing nothing)?
Mt 20:7. THEY SAY (TO) HIM, BECAUSE NO MAN (HAS) HIRED US. HE (SAID) (TO) THEM, GO (YOU) ALSO INTO THE
VINEYARD; AND WHATSOEVER IS RIGHT, THAT SHALL (YOU) RECEIVE.

(or I am not being unfair to you-NIV): (DID) NOT (YOU) AGREE WITH ME (to work)
(today) FOR A PENNY (or denarius)?
Mt 20:14. (Now) TAKE (YOUR PAY), AND GO (YOUR) WAY: I WILL (or wish to) GIVE
(TO) THIS LAST (man) (who was hired), EVEN (THE SAME AS) (TO) (YOU).
Mt 20:15. IS IT NOT LAWFUL (or right) FOR ME TO DO WHAT I (WANT) WITH (what
