Exegesis
The future verb doso hymin {δώσω ὑμῖν | dṓ-sō hy-mîn} “I will give to you” concludes the sentence, placing rhetorical weight on the speaker’s promised action. In English, the clause is rendered with a clear future commitment (“I will give/pay you whatever is right/fair”), preserving both the indefiniteness of ho ean and the ethical nuance of dikaion while maintaining natural word order.
In context — Matthew 20:4
And to them he said, “You also go into the vineyard , and whatever may be right I will give to you.”
