I am speaking as to sensible people. Judge for yourselves what I am saying.

Or those eighteen that the tower in Siloam fell on and killed— do you think they were more sinful than all the other people who live in Jerusalem?

“ For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.

“ It is like a man on a journey, who left his house, gave authority to his servants, gave each one his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to be alert.

“ Listen to another parable: There was a landowner, who planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a watchtower. He leased it to tenant farmers and went away.

“ Yes,” he said. When he went into the house, Jesus spoke to him first,“ What do you think, Simon? From whom do earthly kings collect tariffs or taxes? From their sons or from strangers?”

About noon and about three, he went out again and did the same thing.Then about five he went and found others standing around and said to them,‘ Why have you been standing here all day doing nothing?’“‘ Because no one hired us,’ they said to him.“‘ You also go into my vineyard,’ he told them.

Tell us, then, what you think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”

He also said,“ A man had two sons.The younger of them said to his father,‘ Father, give me the share of the estate I have coming to me.’ So he distributed the assets to them.Not many days later, the younger son gathered together all he had and traveled to a distant country, where he squandered his estate in foolish living.After he had spent everything, a severe famine struck that country, and he had nothing.Then he went to work for one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs.He longed to eat his fill from the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one would give him anything.When he came to his senses, he said,‘ How many of my father’s hired workers have more than enough food, and here I am dying of hunger!I’ll get up, go to my father, and say to him,“ Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight.I’m no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired workers.”’So he got up and went to his father. But while the son was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him.The son said to him,‘ Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I’m no longer worthy to be called your son.’“ But the father told his servants,‘ Quick! Bring out the best robe and put it on him; put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.Then bring the fattened calf and slaughter it, and let’s celebrate with a feast,because this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.“ Now his older son was in the field; as he came near the house, he heard music and dancing.So he summoned one of the servants, questioning what these things meant.‘ Your brother is here,’ he told him,‘ and your father has slaughtered the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’“ Then he became angry and didn’t want to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.But he replied to his father,‘ Look, I have been slaving many years for you, and I have never disobeyed your orders, yet you never gave me a goat so that I could celebrate with my friends.But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your assets with prostitutes, you slaughtered the fattened calf for him.’“‘ Son,’ he said to him,‘ you are always with me, and everything I have is yours.But we had to celebrate and rejoice, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”
