Matthew 20:10

Every man a penny (ana dhnarion kai autoi). Literally, "themselves also a denarius apiece" (distributive use of ana). Bruce asks if this householder was a humorist when he began to pay off the last first and paid each one a denarius according to agreement. False hopes had been raised in those who came first who got only what they had agreed to receive.
