Many Called Few Chosen

 Matthew 20: 1-16
The Celebrant at the Mass latched on to the words, "Are you envious because I am generous".
These words are also in the NetBible Mt: 20:15 but in few other versions.

Net Bible 20:15 Am I not¹⁸ permitted to do what I want with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?’¹⁹ 20:16 So the last will be first, and the first last.”

 

Even more striking is Mt 20:16 "for many be called, but few chosen". KJV.
